Teaching

While most of my courses are taught in a philosophy department, the focus tends to be interdisciplinary.  I try to connect my teaching to the social sciences (especially economics) and biology.  I also think that philosophy is most captivating when it connects with real world problems.  In keeping with that, I try to motivate all my classes with examples that will be relevant to the audience.  I then use those examples to draw students into philosophical problems at a level of generality a few steps higher than they are used to.  

I've taught regularly at two institutions, Carnegie Mellon University and University of California, Irvine.  I've also had the opportunity to teach a number of short courses and summer schools to undergraduates, graduates, and professionals. I'm happy to provide these materials under the Creative-Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License.  This means you are free to reuse and share any materials you find here.
