I enjoy teaching and sharing my knowledge with students. I’ve taught topics ranging from statistics to English as a Second Language. I believe that teaching should be an open and collaborative experience. On this page, I share some of the teaching resources I’ve developed, in hopes they will be useful to other teachers or students.

Statistics for travel behavior
In fall 2019, I co-taught a seminar on how people’s attitudes affect their travel behavior. As part of this seminar, I gave a crash course in statistics for travel behavior, covering topics including linear regression, factor analysis, discrete choice models, count models, and structural equation models. I created a comprehensive slide deck with visual demonstrations of these model forms.
The goal of this course was not to teach students how to fit these models, but to give students an understanding of what model forms are out there, when it is appropriate to use them, and how to interpret their results.

Git
In May 2020, I gave a webinar on using Git for version control in an academic setting, focusing on the basics of creating a repository, creating commits, branching, and merging, from the command line. In the future I plan to give a follow-on workshop for collaborating on code using GitHub. The webinar is available on YouTube. Slides and demo data are also available.
