Yore honoured
Dr. Larry Yore (education) was awarded the 2012 Distinguished Contributions to Science Education through Research Award by the Virginia-based National Association for Research in Science Teaching (NARST). “This award is a nice way to end a formal career,” said Yore, who retired from UVic this year and is now a Distinguished Professor Emeritus. “It also encourages me to stay active in research and validates the area of research that looks at language’s roles in constructing, reporting and persuading others about the importance of making science accessible to everyone.”
