Teaching

Under construction - much more content to come. 

A mission statement of sorts:

I ask students in my capstone courses to write personal mission statements as a touchstone for the reflective exercise that culminates in their e-portfolios. One potential question we can ask ourselves when developing that kind of statements is, "How do I want to be remembered?" Personally, I have struggled with that one myself, for all of the many years I have assigned this task to my students. How do I want to be remembered, and how can I express that cogently? Finally, I have it, taken verbatim from the late University of Chicago Professor, Martin E. Marty: "That I was a good teacher." That seems like a good aspiration.

Courses I have taught recently at UD include:

Other opportunities to study at the University of Seoul include their Visiting Student Program, Seoul International Summer School I (July) and Seoul International Summer School II (August). If you are interested in these programs, check the information on course content, pricing, nomination and application process, and other details on the UOS OIA website.
