I regularly teach GIScience-geospatial and environmental courses. Beyond these, I also have recently environmental and physical geography and geospatial data science (spatial analysis, statistics, cloud computing and machine learning.) My teaching is highly geared toward active learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving towards environmental sustainability. I favor open access and accessible educational content and welcome sharing with interested colleagues.

Geospatial:

  • Digital Earth: Geospatial Science, Technology and Society (general education course)
  • Introductory to Advanced GIS (Spatial Analysis)
  • small Uncrewed Autonomous Systems (sUAS) mapping, monitoring, and applications
  • Cartography and Geovisualization
  • Coastal and Marine Applications of GIS (e.g. “Spatial Analysis of Coastal Environments”)
  • Geospatial Field Techniques (GPS/GNSS, field data collection, forest and plant biometry, and topographic surveys)
  • Digital Techniques for Remote Sensing
  • Geospatial Data Analysis (graduate level geoprocessing, programming, and cloud computing)

Coastal and Marine:

  • Coastal Geography, Planning and Management
  • Marine Geography: GIS for a Blue Planet
  • Coastal and Marine Resources
  • Society and the Sea Seminar
  • Barrier Islands Field Course
  • Techniques for Coastal Resources Management

Environmental Sustainability, Weather, and Climate:

  • Environmental Systems and Sustainability
  • Weather & Climate
  • Environmental Geography
  • Terrain Analysis and Geomorphology
  • Tropical Geography: Costa Rica Study Abroad
  • Environmental Hazards
  • World Natural Environments
