Physics Laboratory Classes

Picture
University of California, Riverside
I taught many laboratory classes and was a teaching assistant for some physics lectures while at the University of California, Riverside. As a laboratory TA for the physics department at UCR I was in charge of facilitating a weekly 30-student exploratory laboratory designed to supplement traditional instructional lectures. I oversaw labs about the following topics:
  • electricity and magnetism (algebra and calculus based)
  • classical mechanics (algebra and calculus based)
  • modern physics (calculus based)
