Teaching Philosophy

I am aiming to ensure that students learn the fundamental content of the courses that I teach, my objectives as a faculty at the University are as follows: (a) to foster critical thinking skills; (b) to facilitate the acquisition of lifelong learning skills; (c) to help students develop evidence-based clinical problem-solving strategies; (d) to prepare students to function as skilled and competent health professionals across the scope of practice Furthermore, my overall teaching philosophy is based on: (a) active student learning strongly influences student-learning outcomes; (b) assessment procedures strongly influence student acquisition of knowledge. Teaching Given that undergraduate courses in health sciences are necessarily weighted toward acquisition of foundational clinical concepts and knowledge, I use a combination of traditional lecture and problem-based learning formats in my teaching.
