About Me

knapp1.jpgInstructor Knapp has been working on redesigning California public school courses and programs with evidence-based pedagogy and targeted technological tools since 2010.  In 2012, after observing the power of Kahn Academy for teaching math via short, sequenced, video instruction modules, her passion for “flipped” educational design inspired her to redesign university-level courses following the Kahn Academy model. Knapp has received numerous awards, including awards from the California State University Chancellor’s Office, San Jose State Provost’s office, and Martin Luther King Jr. Library, for her innovative course redesigns with technology and the flipped-hybrid model. In 2018, she was nominated for the CSU Faculty Innovation and Leadership Award.

A life long learner who understands the transformative power of education, Instructor Knapp created Enlightened Education to build learning support systems that leverage 21st century science and technology to better support faculty and students.
