If you are interested in working on an undergraduate or graduate
research project with me, I would be happy to meet with you to
discuss your ideas! Please take a look at
this information page
before coming by, to find out what my expectations are and to see
examples of projects I'd be interested.
Take a look at
Fred Zelhart's master's thesis
on an intelligent tutoring system he built. Fred was my first
grad student. I hope to post the work of my other past grad
students, including Mike Holmes and Tom Oleson, as times permit.
The work of students who finish in the near future will be
posted as it becomes available.
Previous Courses
Some of my previous courses are still available on-line:
820:140,
Environment, Technology, and Society
(capstone)
Scholarly Working in Teaching
My teaching in the last few years has primarily involved a
three-course rotation of Algorithms, Programming Languages,
and Compilers. I have also taught our second course, on
object-oriented programming, on a regular basis. I am teaching
our first course this semester for the first time in a decade,
and loving it!
As a part of my exploration of patterns,
I work on the discovery and use of patterns of programs in all of
my courses.
