Life Sciences Focus

Pre health

Education Research and Pedagogy Expertise

Active learning assessment development

Describe the courses that you teach for life sciences students

Physics for the life sciences I & II, Statistics for the health sciences

What is your approach to teaching physics for life science students?

Get to know what interests them (students) and look for Physics/Statistics in those areas of interests. Approach concepts conceptually with hands on activities and mathematical reasoning.
