TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

My teaching philosophy is to encourage students to find their own way of thinking and explore their potentials through constant inspiration and encouragement. Learning, in an exciting sense, really happens when factual knowledge is accompanied by the ability to apply knowledge, to synthesize, to make predictions and judgments, and ultimately, to make defensible normative claims. I think students often learn best and most in moments when they are pushed to think beyond what they know. I also believe that in teaching, as in life, one cannot afford to fear failure. Instead, I strive to remain open to learning from my successes and failures in the classroom and to learning something important about myself or about Mechanical Engineering. We need to train our students with enough practical engineering skills to start their careers right after graduation. In addition, we need to teach them enough fundamental knowledge to enjoy a life-long learning.
