Teaching Experience
The Dynamic Earth (majors introductory geophysics lecture and laboratory) UCSC, Spring 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006
Instructor (2004, 2005): Rob Coe rcoe@pmc.ucsc.edu
Taught and helped design labs focused on illustrating concepts from the lecture part of the course,
which
covered physical processes occurring in the interior of the earth, at its surface, and in the oceans and
atmospheres including plate tectonics, structural deformation of rocks, and material and heat transport.
This quantatative course involved many office hours to help with homework
and test preparation.
Geology of National Parks (non-majors earth science overview course) UCSC, Winter 2006
Instructor: Susan Schwartz susan@pmc.ucsc.edu
Led lab and discussion sections clarifying concepts from the lecture part of the couse which covered physical
and chemical geologic processes shaping our national parks.
E&M and Optics Lab (science and egineering majors physics lab) UCSD Fall 2001 Winter 2002
Taught multiple lab sections focused on error propagation using data from LRC circut, lens, and laser experiements.
Reviews from students
Introduction to Newtonian Physics (non-science majors physics lab) UCSD Spring 2002
Taught 2 lab sections focused on using fun, hands on experiements to illustrate concepts
of mechanics
and electrostatics.
Field Experience
Fall 2005 CANOE PASSCAL Array recovered seismometers, solar panels, and other equipment CANOE website
Spring 2004 PASSCAL instrument training, STS2, Guaralp, Reftek seismic instruments and recorders and
software training at the IRIS-PASSCAL Instrument Center, Socorro, New Mexico
Spring 2001 Helped deploy and recover ocean bottom seismometers on four day research cruise testing new OBS design
