TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

The university education experience, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, is often as much about acquiring life long learning skills as about acquiring facts in a particular subject area. In the area of information systems, content changes almost minutely. Students need the tools to be able to adapt and to learn on their own. In aiming to teach students how to engage in life long learning, I seek to:

• develop independent, critical thinkers who are capable of problem analysis and resolution beyond the classroom
• develop creative thought
• develop individuals who take responsibility for their actions in independent as well as in group learning, and further, in society
