Portfolio Objective/Abstract:

Throughout this portfolio, I try to blend together the myriad parts of teaching and learning, to show the strong bond between my interest in mathematics and science education and the scholarship of teaching and learning. By focusing on the connectedness of the parts, I hope to leave you with a sense of the journey I have undertaken these last few years. It has been a meaningful and transformative voyage, and I invite you to join me on this joyful, yet sometimes arduous, odyssey. And just as flour and yeast are not bread, this portfolio is only a collection of teaching "ingredients" that represent the love, frustration, and care I put into my teaching and teaching research.
