Education, mentorship, and interdisciplinary learning

Teaching and Mentoring

My teaching emphasizes systems thinking, interdisciplinary analysis, and practical problem solving across sustainability, environmental systems, policy, and geospatial methods.

Approach

I aim to help students connect concepts to real world systems. My courses often combine analytical frameworks with applied tools such as GIS, system dynamics, and case based sustainability analysis. I also value inclusive teaching practices that support students with different learning needs and backgrounds.

System Dynamics for Climate Change and Resource Modeling

Course development and instruction

Introduces students to feedbacks, dynamic complexity, and scenario exploration in environmental systems.

Sustainable Development Assessment and Planning

Course development and instruction

Focuses on sustainability frameworks, indicators, planning tools, and interdisciplinary evaluation of development pathways.

Cities, Regions, Health and Climate Change

Course development and instruction

Examines climate risk and environmental change through urban and regional lenses, with attention to social and spatial dimensions.

GIS for Environmental Analysis

Technical and applied methods

Builds practical skills in geospatial data handling, mapping, spatial interpretation, and environmental problem analysis.

Mentoring

I have mentored students across classroom and project based settings, including final year project work, interdisciplinary collaborations, and applied sustainability assignments for partner organizations.

Tools used in teaching

Vensim, ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, structured writing support, and project based learning approaches that connect technical methods to public problems.
