Details

I teach courses in multimedia, 3D animation, chemistry, astronomy, geology, and computer technology at Walden School of Liberal Arts in Provo, Utah. Previously, I taught Media Design Technology courses at Mountainland Applied Technology College (MATC) in Orem, Utah. I have also taught courses in the physical sciences (chemistry, astronomy, Earth sciences, physics, etc.) and history at the high school level in public and private schools. I am passionate about science education, science history, photography, graphic design, and video production. The Elements Unearthed project will combine these interests to document the discovery, history, sources, uses, mining, refining, and hazards of the chemical elements in the form of audio, video, and written podcasts that all can share and learn from. The purpose of this blog is to report on the progress of this project.
