I recently taught a seminar that I designed called “Participation and Equality.” The seminar challenged students to examine whether or not representative participation is necessary in order to have representative government. I am prepared to teach the following courses: Introduction to American Politics, Political Participation in America, Elections in America, Introduction to Race, Ethnicity & American Politics, Suburban/Urban Politics, American Political Geography, Public Opinion, and Introduction to Research in Political Science. In the Fall, I will be teaching a graduate course called “Teaching Political Science.” It is a course designed to help first-time Teaching Assistants learn how to be effective instructors. Sample syllabi are below.
