I care deeply about my teaching, and believe it is a very important part of my role as a university professor and academic. I was inducted into the University of Oregon’s Provost’s Teaching Academy in 2020 after having participated in a UO Summer Teaching Institute focused on developing online/asynchronous courses. I have since participated in a second UO Summer Teaching Institute (2021), a university-wide pilot of social annotation platforms designed to improve online teaching (2021), a program designed to build open access materials into course reading lists (2021), and a Communities Accelerating the Impact of Teaching (CAIT) on High Enrollment Online Courses run by the University of Oregon’s Office of the Provost (2022–2023). In the 2023-24 academic year, I am serving on another CAIT, this one focused on Teaching and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
