Geology and anthropology courses at WKU

I taught courses in the departments of Geography & Geology and Folk Studies & Anthropology at Western Kentucky University, including online courses, lectures, labs, and Honors classes. In 2015 I taught two sections of GEOG 226: Our Dangerous Planet (Natural Hazards), GEOL 112 & GEOL 114: Earth History Lecture and Lab (online), HON 300: Myths of "Paleo" (an Honors College colloquium), and multiple Anthropology courses. For a full list of courses taught and dates, please see the Vitae section.

 

Frontiers of Science Online

I prepared Earth Science related materials for a free online teaching resource website called Frontiers of Science Online. These materials are based on the lectures and classroom materials that were developed for the innovative Frontiers of Science course in the Core Curriculum of Columbia College, Columbia University.
