I believe an optimal classroom includes the following components:

1. A learning environment that activates a student’s current understanding and personal experience as a starting point to integrate new knowledge,
2. Curriculum content presented in ways that engage different types of learners giving them a variety of avenues to learn and master the material, and
3. A student-centered classroom which affords students an opportunity to learn from and with the professor as well as fellow learners within the classroom in an active and hands-on way.

I thoroughly enjoy teaching and adore watching learners grow and come to understand the material I cover in a way that is meaningful to them. I work for “aha” moments and the internalization of material that changes the schemas of my students.
