Teaching

Spring 2024 Courses

All my classes are face-to-face classes but may occasionally move online based on pandemic conditions or for particular activities. These activities may be asynchronous, meaning that they will take place outside of the scheduled class times.

Note that due to the current labour dispute, classes in Spring 2024 may experience substantial disruption. For more information, see the California Faculty Association's Student Strike FAQ.
