Kenzie Duwe, an undergraduate integrative studies major with concentrations in rehabilitation studies, sociology and education, has been researching the UNT ELEVAR Transition Pathways program alongside Melissa Savage, an assistant professor of educational psychology. Duwe is helping observe coaching sessions between UNT pre-service teaching students and middle and high school students with disabilities at North Texas school districts. The study will offer insight on the experiences of students with disabilities transitioning from K-12 to adulthood as well as the preparation of pre-service students to work with this population. In her career, Duwe wants to help international families who have children with disabilities to navigate the U.S. public school system.
