Teaching philosophy
I tend to discuss fundamental contents and actual developments in interactive ways in my teaching. I try to stimulate discussions and critical thinking and question ideas and approaches taken for granted. I like to confront students with complex problems, which have to be defined and analyzed from theoretical and practical perspectives to design effective solutions. When relevant, I also incorporate my research into the course content. I follow these approaches because critical thinking, problem analysis, and solution design skills are essential academic competencies.
