My commitment to teaching is absolutely at the core of who I am as an academic. Here is my take on creating a collaborative, safe, diverse, and stimulating learning environment:
In the Fall semester 2020, I am teaching three courses at Wesleyan University:
- Bodies and Experiences (online version): not your usual introductory Philosophy course [syllabus]
- Bodies and Experiences 2 (in-person version) [syllabus]
- Philosophy of Psychology (in-person) [syllabus]
In the Spring semester, I will teach:
- Phenomenology and Existentialism (a mixture of philosophy and literature) [syllabus]
- Philosophy of Perception (a journey back to the roots of my passion for philosophy) [syllabus: coming soon!]
During my time at the University of Pittsburgh, I taught:
- Philosophy of Psychology, Spring 2020 [syllabus]
- Knowledge and Reality (TA), Fall 2019
- Concepts of Human Nature, Summer 2018 [syllabus]
- Introduction to Philosophical Problems (TA), Fall 2015 & Spring 2017
- Philosophy of Mind (TA), Fall 2016
- Philosophy and Science (TA), Spring 2016
A few other courses I have some ideas for include:
- Science and Society (based on Naomi Oreskes’s Why trust science?) [syllabus]
- Philosophy of Sport (ok, mostly basketball)
