Note from Lisa Damaschke-Deitrick :
(Prof. Wiseman) Suzanne: You are an amazing scholar, teacher, advocate, analyst, and now colleague. Your dissertation work uniquely contributes to the field's broader understanding of teacher efficacy worldwide, but more importantly your humor, wit, aplomb, and graciousness give you the tools to use both qualitative and quantitative data to inform educational decision-making...and simultaneously build meaningful relationships that create sustainable change around those decisions. Those are powerful, dual tools, and I'm so excited for you to continue moving forward on your path. Congratulations!
(Prof. Damaschke-Deitrick) Dear Suzanne, Best wishes on your great achievement! Your motivation, perseverance and commitment were outstanding during your PhD-time. It was a pleasure getting to know you and working with you in the last years! Congratulations! I wish you all the best for all your future endeavors! Best, Lisa
