Biography: Aaron Sams has been an educator since 2000. In 2009 he was awarded the Presidential Award for Excellence in Math and Science Teaching while teaching Chemistry in Woodland Park, CO and serving as co-chair of the Colorado State Science Standards Revision Committee. Aaron has co-authored seven books on the Flipped Classroom concept, and serves as an advisor to TED-Ed. He has trained thousands of teachers, administrators, and professors to integrate new technology with sound pedagogy. With experience in public, private, and home schools, in both face-to-face, online, and blended learning environments, Aaron brings a unique perspective to the field of education. While specializing in STEM education and educational technology, he also cares deeply about the integration of the arts and humanities into his tech-heavy field. He is a lifelong learner, reader, maker, and explorer. He holds both a B.S. in Biochemistry and an M.A.Ed. from Biola University and is pursuing a Ph.D. through Texas Tech.
