As an educator, I am committed to help students meet their fullest potential in learning Veterinary Science, using Metabolomics approach, by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites a sharing of ideas. My ultimate goal is for students to develop analytical skills in metabolomics that they can successfully apply for further study in biomedicine or food technology. My teaching philosophy has developed over many years as a student and teaching at the Vet School in Uruguay, and my love of teaching and passion for research has played a fundamental role in my career choice.
Students are unique individuals who need a stimulating atmosphere for asking questions, designing and execution experiments, and determining whether …show more content…
In addition, continuous development in sensitive analytical techniques and advanced biostatistics provides feasible metabolites identification and quantification in complex biological samples, for instance in blood, urine or in tissue extracts. Therefore, guidance the students to search for knowledge and find answers to their questions is a key aspect for learn this dynamic and complex "omics" technology. As a teacher, I provide the principles of instrumentation, methodologies, statistical analysis and bio-applications. The educational strategies that I use are: lecture, discussion groups, field and laboratory activities, reading assignments, research papers, handouts, experiments, films, and walk-in and office hours in order to meet the educational needs of the student. Particularly, from the first day of class, I identify the diverse backgrounds and interests of the students to adjust my class accordingly. My goal is that the student, no matters career path chosen, has the ability to be a logical and independent …show more content…
I would require to student to write short term papers interpreting data and discussing methodologies among other topics. This will give the student practices in both evaluating literature and writing about it which will empower them as a scientist.
Teaching provides an opportunity for continual professional and personal learning and growth. One of my goals as an educator is to instill a love of learning in my students, as I share my own passion for learning with them. I am inspired by those teachers and experiences that have motivated me to pursue research and I wish to share that with others. I believe my great passion for teaching, past teaching experience, academic background and communication skills will make me an excellent
