Teaching Approach

 

My approach for teaching the computer science courses have been developed and now evolves based on my experience as a lecturer, researcher and as a practitioner in Europe and Asia specifically working in Denmark, Ireland and Pakistan.  My experience (in multi-cultural/institutional environment) as a lecturer is based on tutoring courses and supervising projects at the undergraduate and postgraduate level - both with distinct challenges and rewards - that I have mostly enjoyed over the past five years.

 

I believe that a scientific/engineering related teaching and learning process benefits from i) a blend of theoretical concepts that facilitate practice-driven learning and also ii) an environment that promotes discussions, (counter-) arguments and ideas within and beyond class activities. I try to continually improve and implement the above mentioned approach, specifically in software engineering and development courses that received a positive feedback from students and their learning outcome.

 

I provide an overview of my teaching philosophy in Figure, where teaching and learning process comprises of two activities namely Teaching Support and Learning Initiative.
