Courses

Biology

I teach a range of courses in Biology including Introduction to Organismal Biology, Ecology Laboratory, Physiological Ecology, and Invertebrate Zoology. During alternating summers, I co-teach Tropical Marine Biology in La Paz, Mexico. I also teach a core graduate course, Essentials of Biology Graduate Studies.

Science Education

I am responsible for the secondary methods classes, Fundamentals of Teaching Science and Methods in Secondary Education for Science Teachers. I also teach Matter and Energy in Life Systems, a general biology course for preservice elementary teachers. This course uses a reformed biology curriculum called Life Science and Everyday Thinking. More information about this curriculum can be found by following the navigation tab to the left or by going to the LSET website.
