Designed Microbiology I course using backward design to address specific learning outcomes.Teach a Microbiology I course for science majors and pre-nursing students.Employ various on-line tools (Engrade, Quizlet, Wikispaces) to improve students' learning outcomes.Created and utilized case studies to engage students, and improve their critical thinking skills.Created authentic assessment items.

• Utilized backward design approach to create goal driven curriculum for high school Chemistry, Biology, Environmental Science and Physical Science courses. • Worked with science teachers to align science curriculum with Common Core Standards and NSTA Next Generation Science Standards. Collaborated with other teachers at Mastbaum AVTS to improve literacy across the curriculum.• Created and taught first College Board accredited science course at Mastbaum AVTS.• Employed Smartboard technology, Microsoft Office programs, on-line tutorials, quizzes, and education management tools, such as Quizlet, Wikispaces, Canvas, Engrade, etc. Incorporated different teaching modalities in lessons to address students’ multiple intelligences, increase student engagement and improve learning outcomes.• Used Fredric Jones’ positive discipline model to build a successful and engaged classroom. Developed tiered intervention plans using RTII system to improve parental involvement and address students’ individual needs.
