T for Teaching

Teaching is a way not only to transmit knowledge, but also to trans-infect my enthusiasm for research and the subject (the honey bees!) to students. I emphasize interaction in the classroom and make students participate actively in the learning process.

I teach an undergraduate course: honey bee biology and pollination (fall of even years), and a graduate course, insect physiology (fall of odd years).

I was a Lily Teaching Fellow at MSU 2002-2003.
