We congratulate Dr. Mata-McMahon and wish her great success in her new role! 

Repost from UMBC Community News: 
https://my3.my.umbc.edu/groups/insights/posts/111142

Dear Members of the UMBC Community,

I am delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Jennifer Mata-McMahon as the new director of the Sherman Center for Early Learning in Urban Communities. Her appointment is effective August 16, 2021. Dr. Mata-McMahon succeeds Dr. Mavis Sanders, who has served with distinction as the Center’s inaugural director.

The Sherman Center for Early Learning in Urban Communities is a multidisciplinary center that was established with a generous gift from the George and Betsy Sherman Family Foundation. The mission of the Center is to expand UMBC’s efforts to build a strong foundation for learning among young children in Baltimore City and to develop best early education practices for urban schools through applied research, teacher professional development, and partnerships with schools, families, and communities.

Dr.  Mata-McMahon joined UMBC in 2018 as Associate Professor of Early Childhood Education in UMBC’s Department of Education and also currently holds an appointment as a research professor in the Sherman Center for Early Learning in Urban Communities. Dr. Mata-McMahon graduated from Universidad Metropolitana in Caracas, Venezuela with a B.A. in early childhood education and educational leadership and administration, and earned her M.A., Ed.M., and Ed.D. from Teachers College, Columbia University, in early childhood education with an emphasis in bilingual/bicultural education. She has served as an infant, toddler, preschool, kindergarten, and middle school teacher, both in the U.S. and abroad. In addition, she has provided professional development to teachers and professors in public and private urban settings, and conducted program evaluations for non-profit educational organizations in India, New York, and Illinois. Her research interests include bilingual education, moral and socio-emotional development, and children’s spirituality, fields in which she has published a number of articles, chapters, and books. 

As director of the Sherman Center for Early Learning in Urban Communities, Dr. Mata-McMahon will build upon Dr. Sanders’ remarkable legacy. As the Center’s inaugural director, Dr. Sanders established a strong foundation for the Center through the development of effective collaborations with its steering and advisory committees, UMBC’s faculty, and campus partners supporting K-12 engagement, as well as through authentic partnerships with schools, families, and communities.

Please join me in congratulating and supporting Dr. Mata-McMahon in her new leadership role and in expressing our thanks to Dr. Sanders for her outstanding commitment and leadership as the inaugural director of the Sherman Center for Early Learning in Urban Communities.

Provost Philip Rous

We’re pleased to announce that UMBC faculty can now import publications from ORCID into Digital Measures (DM)! 

ORCID is a non-profit organization dedicated to connecting research and researchers. ORCID provides persistent digital identifiers that researchers own and control for sharing information with other systems, ensuring proper attribution and recognition for scholarly output, and saving time and hassle. Over 1,000 organizations, many of them universities and research institutions, participate as consortial members in ORCID. 

This new integration with Digital Measures (DM) was made possible as part of UMBC’s ORCID membership which took effect on March 1, 2021. UMBC faculty members updating the Intellectual Contributions section of their DM profiles can now select ORCID from the list of third party services offering imported citations. We know faculty maintain records in many online systems and we’re pleased to be able to provide this as an option for saving time. 

Instructions are available on the Library’s website: https://lib.guides.umbc.edu/c.php?g=1047837&p=7604167#s-lg-box-26854360 

Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact Michelle Flinchbaugh, Digital Scholarship Services Librarian, at flinchba@umbc.edu

Please note that UMBC does not require the creation of an ORCID account nor connection with DM for those who already have ORCID accounts and prefer to keep them separate. For those interested in learning more about ORCID before getting started, the library website and ORCID’s own website contain a wealth of information on features, privacy, security, and researcher control over data.
