Teaching

Teaching Philosophy

I strive to develop strong critical thinking skills in students through a teaching methodology known as Team-Based Learning (TBL).  Students are placed in diverse, permanent teams. Individual accountability in a team learning environment is accomplished using: individual and team quizzes, mini-lectures, team activities, and individual exams.  Laboratory assignments emphasize practical hands-on training for the profession.
