ResearchGeoscience educationMy work in geoscience education research includes developing and testing new curricular materials for use in undergraduate teaching, analysis of national trends in faculty teaching practices through surveys and syllabi, the use of analogies, and alignment of standards with assessments.

I am interested in combining field observations with geochronological and geophysical data to learn more about active tectonic environments. I use tools such as geologic mapping, lidar (light detection and ranging), radiocarbon geochronology, gravity and magnetic mapping and modeling, and paleoseismic trenching to decipher the faulting history and current structural setting of a region, primarily the Basin and Range. Current and former MS students
TeachingI teach courses in both Geological Sciences (GEOL) and Science Education (SCED). Current courses
Public outreach
I also gave a public talk sponsored by the Surprise Valley Rotary Club. You can download a PDF of my slides and my geologic map of the valley and surrounding region by clicking the links below: |
