My lesson is are very interactive and participatory. I use technology to help the students become empowered. Videos and music are a big part of all my presentations and discussions. I've learned students care about their learning when they see that they're cared for by their teacher in their intellectual pursuits. When asked specific questions the answer is provided and expounded upon with history, significance and impact. I bring in current research into as many discussions as possible and I find this empowers and motivates the students. If I can, I'll show concepts through experiments that I and the students can do. This greatly helps with understanding. I also bring up new technologies and ideas such as nanotechnology, of which I have many, many years of experience in. Bringing ideas down to the "small", explains many things that can't be explained with basic chemistry or physics. All in all, students want to know their topics in a way that us understandable and makes sense. This is what is needed in today's world of multiple pieces of data and information is impacting all of our students. I'd like my students to not only learn their subject topics, but thoroughly understand that s scientific facts need to be always tested and questioned. After all, evolution continues and continues and, although time seems not to be advancing, it, in fact is, along with the changes we all experience. So, if you want to learn biology, please become an expert by signing up with me for your learning. Thank you.
