Pedagogical Methods Used

Peer Instruction / Think-Pair-Share, Collaborative problem-solving, Conceptually-oriented activities, Context-rich problems, SCALE-UP / studio / workshop physics, Modeling Instruction

Life Sciences Focus

Significant interest in fluids, including Hagen-Poiseuille law, diffusion, and osmosis. Major application includes the circulatory system. Additionally interest in teaching biomechanics, action potentials, gas laws for pulmonary system, and ultrasound.

Education Research and Pedagogy Expertise

I have published work on fluid physics in the circulatory system, elaborating the importance of pressure drop across blood vessels (Hagen-Poiseuille law), and developing authentic examples to bring into the intro physics classroom.
