Courses:
General Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry
My teaching duties in the Department
include General Chemistry (122, 127, 128 and in the
Fall of 2006, Chemistry 124, 125 and 126). My primary
interest is in working with students, both undergraduate
and graduate, and working with developing problem-solving
skills. My own career has taken me from chemistry to
information technology and IT administration and back
to chemistry again - well, almost; I haven't quite shaken
the information technology part of my interest, as I
am the Department's network administrator and webmaster
I maintain a keen interest in chemistry
- and in science and technology, though it is in working
with people that I find the most satisfaction. That
includes the students, faculty and staff at UConn Chemistry.
The students in particular with whom I have worked over
the years have probably taught me the most about how
to teach, and about how to integrate the concepts of
chemistry and technology into a holistic framework for
teaching.
