In my teaching practice I am passionate about expanding STEM education through the use of new technologies. By designing innovative assignments I strive to improve our ability to reach a larger student population and improve the quality of teaching in online and face-to-face STEM courses. In order to successfully facilitate student success, I practice Cascadia’s four learning outcomes consistently in my classroom, laboratory and in the online learning environment.
