TEACHING Assitantships
Foundations of biologyFoundations of Biology is the Introductory Biology Course for all students interesting in pursuing Biology or Health Science majors. This course consisted of three units: chemical and cellular basis of life, genetics, and evolution. My assistantship for this course primarily included leading laboratory and interactive classroom activities with the main goal of engaging students in the scientific method through experimentation. This primary course goal is crucial to begin the process of creating great scientific thinkers.

EvolutionEvolution is one of the keystone courses at the University of Iowa primarily taken by Biology majors. In this course, student are required to engage their scientific minds and critical thinking skills to ask and answer big questions in Evolution. My main goal was to prepare students to enter into the scientific world with confidence to explain and defend their ideas as well as being open to the ideas of other and critically discuss scientific concepts.
