Congrats to Melanie Killen for an excellent article featured in the most recent issue of Scientific American (May 1, 2024). The Inclusive Classroom details her scholarly journey through the realm of moral development research and current explorations of how schools that create inclusive environments impact students’ development, and classroom climate and dynamics. Such inclusive programs have the “potential to better equip future generations to stand up to injustice”. Dr. Killen, a long-time member of JPS, is a professor of human development at the University of Maryland.
