TEACHING INTERESTS

“Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.” William Yeats

I believe in designing courses that develop student’s problem solving and critical thinking skills, and promote their ability to learn. I think this is more important than any information or knowledge that I expose them to. My goal is to form (not inform) new citizens that will become important contributors to our society.
