Teaching / video

Throughout my career I have enjoyed and taken great pride in my teaching. I started teaching in 1971 and continue to teach two courses a year in the Ph.D.

I have also tried to integrate technology into my teaching. I started teaching online courses in 1996 and have continued to do this since. In recent years, I have specifically made use of the Internet and media in presenting content and engaging students in course material. I have made twenty-four short instructional videos. A sample of these videos are below.
