In addition, I see the products of the teaching-learning process as socially constructed, negotiated during social interactions. This process, then, is reciprocal. I think some important outcomes of good teaching include increasing students' abilities to write, verbally express themselves, think critically, apply content to the world around them, and work with others. My teaching philosophy also includes my view of the characteristics of good teaching. It increases your credibility with students, allowing you to incorporate more challenging work into your classes.
Application means using experiential and active teaching techniques.
Application helps excite and interest students in the discipline, and is a useful strategy for teaching difficult or abstract material. We should never underestimate our students' potential. I believe teaching goes well beyond the classroom. Good teachers are involved in student organizations, curriculum committees, research on teaching, collaborative research with students, and advising. Recently, however, my load has included three hours reassigned to research and nine hours of teaching.
