Teaching

From 2003 to 2006, I helped teach the UW course Biological Frameworks For Engineers. I have also offered a summer mini-course on science songs through the UW's GEAR UP program.

I spent the 2002-03 academic year at the University of Puget Sound, where I taught Cell Biology and Animal Physiology.

Three other teaching-related items are also included in the "Teaching" section of this website: a statement of my teaching philosophy, a small set of virtual flashcards for glycolytic enzymes, and an anthology of quotations by one of my favorite professors. (Information about educational science songs can be found in the Science songs and Speeches subsections of the "Miscellany" section.)

As for external links, I highly recommend Team-Based Learning (U. of Oklahoma) and the National Center for Science Education. The latter is devoted to the defense of teaching evolution in public schools.
