As a lecturer in technology and as technology coordinator, my primary responsibilities in the department have been in the design and teaching of the courses that meet the computer and media literacy competencies required for the California clear professional Multiple and Single subjects and Intern Teaching credentials, and for the Administrative Services Credential and the Educational Administration Ed.D. programs.

I also teach arts methods courses for the Multiple Subjects (elementary) and Single Subject (secondary) teaching credential programs, and a course in the Undergraduate Minor in Educational Studies that prepares UCI students from a variety of disciplines to work as computer arts tutors in local schools.

The following is a list of the courses I teach:

Design of high-quality instructional units consistent with current theory and research in cognitive psychology and constructivist-compatible instructional practice and infused with appropriate uses of computer and video technologies. Students design a complete instructional unit using these principles.

Issues and practice in integrating California curriculum frameworks topics in elementary visual and performing arts and physical education with an emphasis on multicultural and computer-based resources and teaching strategies in the elementary school.

Theory, curriculum, and strategies for teaching visual and performing arts in the secondary school. Emphasis on the planning, delivery, and assessment of lessons consistent with California State Framework and content standards.

Application of pedagogy and research to practice teaching experiences in the secondary schools. A continuation of the Education 340 series with an emphasis on the needs of students with culturally diverse backgrounds.

Arts education, theory, curriculum and methods for university students specializing in studio art, digital arts, dance, music, and/or drama. Includes lesson planning and teaching strategies based on California and national frameworks and content standards, and fieldwork in K-12 settings.

Multiculturalism and underrepresented U.S. minorities and the visual and performing arts: perspectives in artistic perception, creative expression, historical and cultural context, and aesthetic valuing, and media literacy in the interpretation and production of multimedia arts products and applications for K-12 classrooms.
