Sun Devil 100 celebrates the achievements of Arizona State University alumni who own or lead successful, innovative businesses. This year, six alumni from ASU’s Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College will be honored at the virtual ceremony on Sept. 17. They are:
Pedro Noguera, dean of the University of Southern California's Rossier School of Education, credits a large chunk of his educational success to his immigrant parents, who never received a high school diploma.
He began his career as a classroom teacher before holding positions as a faculty member, educational researcher and scholar at UC Berkeley, Harvard, Columbia and NYU. Noguera spent over 30 years researching the impact of complex social problems and inequities on poor and marginalized children.
The 2020–21 academic year is J. Bryan Henderson’s seventh year on the faculty of Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College at Arizona State University, and the seventh year of a collaborative program he organizes on ASU’s Tempe campus: InSciEdOut.
Ronald Beghetto, Pinnacle West Presidential Chair Professor for Teacher Education, has been selected as co-editor of the Review of Research in Education, a publication of the American Educational Research Association. Beghetto, along with Yong Zhao, Foundation Distinguished Professor in the University of Kansas School of Education, will edit the 2022 and ’24 editions of RRE.
