Classes:

Teaching Philosophy
To teach effectively one must know the subject content, pedagogy, and the students in the class. Learning is a process of constructing new knowledge, in light of previous knowledge and related experiences, from knowledge and experiences provided by the course instructor. An effective instructor should provide each student with appropriate experiences (students actively/cognitively involved in the class) and knowledge (information).

Experience
High school mathematics, undergraduate mathematics, and graduate mathematics education.

Research and Publications:
Teaching methodology, use of technology in the mathematics classroom, and mathematical problem solving.
Publications in such journals and books as: School Science and Mathematics, Mathematics Teacher, Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, Mathematics and Computer Education, and NCTM Yearbook.
