My Philosophy in Teaching

Structural geology is the study of the architecture of rocks as it has resulted from deformation; OR: It is the study of the

geometry of rocks.

I teach using the Socratic Method, a technique that encourages active interaction between the teacher and student. If you have

questions, ask them immediately during lecture. I’ll also ask individual students to answer my questions during class. My

lectures are pretty freewheeling, you will quickly learn that I try to present material in an integrated fashion while relating it to

other fields in geology such as petrology, Sedimentology and stratigraphy. It’s important therefore that you meet the

prerequisites for the course. Physical and historical geology are required, mineralogy helps as well. Trigonometry and algebra

is the math used in the course, no calculus is required.
