Surely, you jest.
3 master's degrees and you're wondering if you're qualified?
If you really want to be more competitive, get teacher certified in K-12
science education, but I think that would be overkill. With 3 master's,
some places might even be reluctant to hire you because you're
OVER-qualified.
The flip-side is, museum-ed positions pay paltry little, even in big
institutions and unless you have a decent salary, it gets harder to stay in
a position that you might like, but are still living like a grad student on
a stipend. With 3 masters, esp. one in instructional technology, the other
side of the fence gets greener and greener all the time for higher paid job
in a different field.
Good luck!!
