Pedagogically I have stayed as close to an inquiry model as possible with variations where necessary and appropriate. The student populations I have worked with have ranged from first year nursing and education students to masters and doctorate level education students. Courses were typically taught in person using blended techniques or online using asynchronous and synchronous technologies (e.g., Moodle, Blackboard, Collaborate, Wiki\u2019s, etc.).<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#academic_courses\"><strong>Academic Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Professional_Development\"><strong>Professional Development Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#Continuing_Education\"><strong>Continuing Education Courses<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\r\n                            <\/div>\r\n                        <\/div>\n<h3><a id=\"Academic_Courses\"><\/a>Academic Courses<\/h3>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\" width=\"100%\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 18%;\" width=\"18%\"><strong>Course Name<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41%;\" width=\"41%\"><strong>Description<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 17%;\" width=\"17%\"><strong>Program<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 13%;\" width=\"13%\"><strong>Delivery<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 8%;\" width=\"8%\"><strong>Year<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 18%;\">Applied &amp; Experiential Learning<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 41%;\">This is an introductory course that provides students with hands-on experience in working with case-studies and in teams.
