Leonora Kaldaras
Research Assistant, Physics
Staff, PhysicsBioI am a visiting scholar working with Dr. Wieman. My work focuses on designing equitable learning environments and assessments to support students in developing deep understanding of big ideas in science. My prior published work centers around developing and validating learning progressions in the fields of Physical Science and Chemistry aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). My past research experience includes testing and validating machine learning (ML) approaches for automatic scoring of performance assessments in science. I have worked with teachers and students in a wide range of educational settings, including middle, high school and undergraduate gateway courses in science. I am a co-author of award-winning NGSS-aligned curriculum materials for high school called “Interactions”. My research with Dr. Wieman focuses on designing approaches to support mathematical sense-making in science using PhET simulations across various STEM disciplines and educational levels.

Suchismito Khatua
Ph.D. Student in Modern Thought and Literature, admitted Autumn 2023
Research Assistant, EnglishBioIf art is contingent rather than necessary, and often distinct from lived experience, how can it be mobilized to effect political change? In broaching this question, Suchismito Khatua’s research girdles the idea of the avant-garde, and its many figurations in a transnational and translational frame. Thus far, Smito has studied, presented, and published on the theory of the avant-garde, modernist “minor”/ “underground” literary cultures in the Bangla, Hindi, and Marathi languages, and concomitant histories of far-left militancy in post-independence India. His current interests span the critical theory of the Frankfurt School, histories of labor, subalternity, and resistance, theories of affect and sexuality, psychoanalysis, and translation.
Smito was formerly affiliated with the Centre for English Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, where he worked as a UGC Research Fellow and Undergraduate Course Instructor. In 2022, he was a visiting fellow in the research cluster “Temporal Communities: Doing Literature in a Global Perspective” and the Friedrich Schlegel Graduate School at Freie Universität Berlin.
Much of Smito’s thinking on living, and love, sweeps along a scissored trajectory of anarcho-communism and intersectional, anti-assimilationist queer politics. Poetry sustains him. -
