I build, guide, and nurture active, exciting online learning communities in which I am one of the learners. I engage them, interact with them, motivate them to interact with the material, and inspire them to learn. I encourage them to reflect on their learning. My goal is to stimulate student interest in continuing to learn for a lifetime about the topics I teach and to model that learning as a lifelong learner myself. I maintain warm relationships with students I’ve had throughout my teaching career, many of whom still come to me for advice. See balance of Teaching Philosophy.
