teaching philosophy: 

i believe that teaching and learning is a multi-directional process with the 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 sharing roles in the experience. i tend to begin each course in dialogue with 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 to understand their interests in the subject, what they can bring to the learning of others, and how i can help them to achieve their learning objectives. i recognize that within each group there are various learning styles and preferences, so i tend to diversify both my methods of instruction and evaluation. i vary the ways in which i convey key concepts in my courses (e.g., using combinations of lectures, discussions, role-plays, active group exercises, individual reflections, drawings, and multi-media presentations) and in the design of assessment tools (e.g., pop quizzes, examinations, essays, field study reports, reflective journals, applied group projects, student seminars, participation self-evaluations, etc.).

where feasible, i try to offer 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 some degree of choice within a range of options for their assessment or allow them to apply a set assignment to a scenario of their choice. one of the best ways i find to demonstrate the relevance of course content in the “real world” is through community service learning (csl).

 
research interests: 

my research interests focus on the interface between human activities and the conservation of nature. i served on the committee on the status of species at risk in ontario, bringing a speciality in species and habitats of cultural landscapes.  i worked with parks canada to plan and deliver sustainable tourism experiences that increase visitors' awareness and appreciation of the natural and cultural heritage of lake superior's north shore.  

my graduate research projects fell within the discipline of applied historical ecology, a multidisciplinary line of inquiry that aims to piece together evidence of the causes (anthropogenic or otherwise) and consequences of changes in landscapes through history to provide context for the assessment of current ecological conditions. i was particularly interested in the relationship between the conservation of agricultural biodiversity the management of natural biodiversity in protected areas inhabited and used by traditional livestock herders.
