What are you hoping to learn in this class?
My Philosophy
I’m here to create an environment in which you might learn.
Sometimes this means lecture, sometimes activities.
I will only ask you to participate in things that I believe will help you learn.
You are ultimately responsible for your own learning.
Actively read the text. Participate in class. Actively integrate material from the two sources.
