Teaching

My primary focus is supporting the students taking the BI 10x General Biology courses (BI 101, 102, and 103). Over 2500 non-science majors take these courses each year to fulfill their baccalaureate core science perspectives requirements. We represent science to students who are taking their final formal science courses, and provide a rigorous and reflective experience that can scaffold continued science learning within informal settings. I am also interested in "learner-object" interactions, particularly how varied science artifacts can engage diverse learners. This area takes on increased importance as we develop and balance online and on-campus student experiences.

Courses Taught

  • BI 101 - Environmental Biology: Ecology, Conservation, Global Change
  • BI 102 - Animal Biology: Genes, Behavior and Evolution of Life
  • BI 103 - Human Biology: Anatomy, Physiology and Disease
