Why SPU?

Liz Buffington |现任博士生

 

Liz Buffington

I earned my MEd from SPU and went directly into the PhD program after graduation. I knew that at Seattle Pacific I would find individualized support for me as an educator and lifelong learner. At SPU, I am nurtured as a professional researcher. 在教育学院, we focus our research and learning on meeting the needs of all students, and we share a core value of addressing opportunity gaps using a solution-minded practice. I use what I learn in this program every single day — in conversations about data, 与实习教师一起工作, 在教室里. My learning at SPU is directly applicable to my daily work, and the connection with faculty – who are anchored in student-focused instruction – is what I love about SPU.

Ira Rasikawati:教育学博士

Assistant Professor, UKRIDA, Jakarta, Indonesia

Ira Rasikawati

When I got a Fulbright scholarship for Indonesian instructors to pursue a PhD in the U.S, I looked for a university that would allow me to develop competency in literacy research and to grow in a community where faith and beliefs play an integral role. Later, I found SPU to be quite similar to the university I served in my country, in terms of its culture as a faith-based institution.

当我进入这个项目的时候, I met different professors who had keen interests in internalization and collaborative research. During my study, doctoral faculty from SPU visited Indonesia to give talks on action research and digital education to professors at Krida Wacana Christian University (UKRIDA). My overall experience studying at SPU has widened my academic and professional fields. I am currently working on collaborative research in literacy and digital education areas. In addition to serving as the Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, I have been head of the Center for Language Literacy, Education, 科技(CLET). I wish to build further linkages between SPU and my institution and promote better understanding and more exchanges between Indonesia and the U.S.
