Kathy Mirakovits is a retired high school teacher of forensic science and physics. She currently teaches forensic science and physics at Kalamazoo Valley Community College in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Kathy holds an MS in science education from Western Michigan University, a bachelor's degree in science education from Miami University, and has completed over 15 graduate hours in forensic science. She has taught general science, physical science, chemistry, biology, earth science, and physics at the high school and twoyear college level for a total of 30 years. Additionally, Kathy conducts workshops across the United States for teachers who wish to learn the application of forensic science in a school curriculum. Information on those workshops can be found at her website: www .forensicscience -ed .com. She has developed numerous forensic science educational products for a national science supplier and has led workshops at the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) in forensic science. Kathy has served as president of the Michigan Chapter of the American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT) and as a curriculum writer for the Michigan Department of Education. Kathy has served as the high school director and the membership director for the Michigan Science Teachers Association. She has received the RadioShack Science Teaching Award and has been a two-time state finalist for the Presidential Award for Excellence in Math and Science Teaching (PAEMST). Gina Londino-Smolar earned her bachelor's degree in chemistry from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. She then attended graduate school at Purdue University, Indianapolis, where she earned a master's degree in chemistry. While in graduate school, her main focus was in forensic analysis of pigmented ink using pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Gina is currently a senior lecturer in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology teaching in the Forensic and Investigative Sciences program at Indiana University-Purdue University, Indianapolis, where she has been teaching introductory courses in forensic science, forensic chemistry, and forensic microscopy since 2006. She has designed multiple courses in forensic science, including a variety of beginner-to-advanced laboratory exercises. Gina also serves as a faculty fellow with Teaching and Learning Technologies at Indiana University and has been directly involved in designing online content for both credit and non-credit courses. Gina has created multiple online courses in forensic science, both lecture and laboratory, in order to reach out to other student populations and uses the universal design for learning. She is a fellow of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS) and a member and 2021-2023 president of the Council of Forensic Science Educators (COFSE).
