Context: Teaching

A first course introducing students to the fundamentals of computational problem solving. Students will learn a systematic approach to problem solving, including how to frame a problem in computational terms, how to decompose larger problems into smaller components, how to implement innovative software solutions using a contemporary programming language, how to critically debug their solutions, and how to assess the adequacy of the software solution. Additional topics include an introduction to object-oriented programming and data structures such as arrays and stacks.

After this being my second time taking this course with the same instructor, i can conclude that The instructor was a very caring and understanding individual which means alot to me. I have always looked up to this instructor since he took the same degree i am taking and i want to do what he did when i graduate. Unlike the TAs i will say that he is the most helpful when it comes to helping me when i have questions on the exams and mini practicums

The instructor did a great job at being patient with the class whilst also maintaining the same pace. He made sure that we knew the extensive amount of resources we could utilize in order to advance in the subject.

Helped students during class and showed example codes. Also wanted to do extra zoom sessions near end of semester.

GCIS-123 is a very collaborative class where the team works together. One area where I was able to add some materials was in:

• Homework on Arrays: Created a series of homeworks for learning about arrays unit. This assignment gives you practice using simple Arrays and the Array_utils we started in class. It will also give you some practice using random numbers, and working on your problem solving skills. Finally it will give you practice using recursion to analyze numbers inside an array

This course explores the creation and manipulation of digital images intended for use on the Web. Topics include basic digital photography, acquisition of images, and intermediate image manipulation. Students will do projects creating images suitable for the internet.

Although large-scale web sites still require considerable development effort, there are today several options for establishing a web presence using tools designed for non-programmers. This course gives students understanding of and experience with installing and customizing websites using tools such as Blogs, Wikis,and content management systems.

He provides flexibility with deadlines.

Was very knowledgeable on the subjects at hand

• 2016 Recorded a video lecture series for installing the Joomla Content Management system and put it on YouTube. This was optional content for the Rapid Online Presence Course.
  • Part 1: Joomla CMS installation video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s47yzAbyuWE
  • Part 2: Setting up Joomla: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWmul5hGZ70
• 2016 – 2017. The class used an open source wikipedia-like tool called wikepage. I created several videos to go over installing it:
  • Understanding Unix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWcHMKzWgh0
  • Video Tutorial on using WikePage (a wiki CMS): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJB9ZAAXY4E

This course explores the creation of digital video for use on the web. Topics include basics of digital videography, acquisition of audio, editing, streaming, compression, as well as storytelling with video and integration into web sites and applications.

There was a web development minor for students outside of RIT’s computing college that I have taught: https://www.rit.edu/study/web-design-and-development-minor

I was abruptly assigned these after another faculty had to leave. A lot of curriculum had to be developed in this class when prior systems in place wouldn’t function correctly anymore. If you want to learn more about the curriculum development please contact me!
