Teaching and Mentoring

Instructor

• Sole instructor for 55 undergraduate students; delivered all lectures and supervised one graduate teaching assistant.
• Redesigned the course around hands-on labs in which students build and evaluate working AI systems, shifting the emphasis from code completion toward critical evaluation of model outputs.
• Designed the lecture sequence, recitations, labs, homework sets, and quizzes. These materials were adopted in later offerings.

• Oversaw the course's delivery, materials, and assessment in the semester after my own offering.
• Mentored and supervised the incoming instructor through their first semester teaching the course.

Curriculum Development

• ABET-aligned course improvement (COMP 365). Through the course assessment and continuous-improvement process tied to ABET-aligned learning outcomes, identified where students needed more practice moving from concepts to practical application, then developed two new instructional modules with hands-on labs and refined them the following semester based on student performance.
• New course design (COMP 485). Contributed to the curriculum, syllabus, topic sequence, instructional materials, and hands-on labs for Generative AI and Large Language Models, first offered in Fall 2026.
• NSF CyberTraining (#2416992). Developed labs on retrieval-augmented generation, prompt engineering, and AI model evaluation for COMP 365, and LLM-focused materials for COMP 485.
• NSF SaTC EDU. Helped develop hands-on educational activities in cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and emerging computing topics.
