My Teaching Philosophy |
| Learning by doing |
| My teaching philosophy can be summarized as a belief in learning by doing, balanced with a belief in providing the tools to succeed. In keeping with this philosophy I introduce a concept but then use a project or in and out of class activities that are designed to make students think creatively about the current topic. I believe that by applying a focal concept to a practical situation students get a better overall feel for the complexities and implications of the concept in a particular situation, a better understanding of implementation difficulties, and through these gain a greater ability to use the focal concept upon graduation. |
