TEACHING INTERESTS
Dr. Warter-Perez teaches undergraduate and
graduate courses in computer engineering
. She also team-teaches a course in bioinformatics.
RESEARCH INTERESTS
Her research interests include computer architecture, high-performance
processors, compilers, and embedded systems.
Dr. Warter-Perez is the Director/PI of the IMPACT LA NSF GK12 Program (NSF
Award 0742426). The IMPACT LA NSF
GK-12 program partners graduate teaching fellows with middle and high school
science and math teachers within the East Los Angeles area. The program goals
are to enhance STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics)
curriculum, inform and inspire students about careers in science and
engineering, and improve the graduate fellows' ability to communicate their
research to a broad audience.
Dr. Warter-Perez is involved in
developing active-learning teaching methodologies that integrate project-based
learning into the classroom using Tablet PCs.
She is a collaborator in the HP Collaborative
Learning Center (HPCLC), PI of the NSF CCLI
Collaborative PBL Design Experience in Digital Engineering Project (NSF
Award 0737130), and co-director of the HP Technology for
Teaching Leadership project at CSULA.
Previously, Dr. Warter-Perez was a co-director
of the NSF/NIH
Southern California Bioinformatics Summer Institute (SoCalBSI)
where she taught Python programming for developing bioinformatics tools.
