My Teaching

Besides teaching basic mathematics (calculus, linear algebra, etc.), the courses I teach often tend toward the more geometric and topological, given my research area. This said, I occasionally like to branch out into other areas of mathematics. One of the best ways of learning a new area of math is to teach it! Below you will find some lecture notes and webpages from various courses I have taught over the years.
Lecture Notes:
I typed up lecture notes for some of my courses.
- MTH 744 - Topics in Geometry: Lie Group Actions (Fall 2022, Central Michigan University) - Lecture Notes
- MATH 6230 - Differential Geometry (Spring 2017, University of Colorado Boulder) - Notes on Lie Groupoids
Old Course Websites:
Most courses now have Blackboard sites, but sites from years passed appear below.
- MATH 2300 - Calculus 2 (Fall 2015, University of Colorado Boulder)(honors section)
- MATH 221 - Calculus I (Fall 2014, University of Illinois) (large lecture, 250+ students)
- MATH 3001 - Analysis I (Fall 2016, Fall 2017, University of Colorado Boulder)
- MATH 3430 - Ordinary Differential Equations (Fall 2015, University of Colorado Boulder)
- MATH 535 - General Topology (Fall 2013, Fall 2014, University of Illinois)
- MATH 6230 - Differential Geometry I (Spring 2017, University of Colorado Boulder)
- MATH 6240 - Differential Geometry II (Fall 2017, University of Colorado Boulder)
