Teaching
As a professor at Dartmouth College I teach courses at all levels, from advanced graduate courses in quantum field theory and cosmology to introductory physics classes. I also teach 2 "Physics for Poets" classes, that is, physics for non-science majors. These two courses (Physics 1 and Astronomy 4), designed in collaboration with my colleague from the History Department Richard Kremer, attract quite a large number of students, typically around 180 or so. The courses present physics and astronomy as part of an evolving cultural process, as a search for a deeper understanding of who we are and of the world around us. For more details you can consult the Department of Physics and Astronomy web page.
