I started #EconEdTech, a collaborative sandbox for economists to share and discuss teaching pedagogy in economics in 2013 and again in 2014. Another economics pedagogy initiative is, SERC: Teaching and Learning in Economics. I also actively support Open Educational Resources. I am a senior contributing author to OpenStax, a textbook initiative that develops peer-reviewed, readable, and accurate learning materials that are distributed free to students. More recently, I have contributed to the Lumen Learning “Principles of Economics” text and I have served as the Team Lead for a Macroeconomics Principles text at Affordable Learning Ohio.
I teach the following courses. Class content and course schedules are on College of Wooster’s course management system.
