I'm Juville Dario-Becker from Central Virginia Community College in Lynchburg. In my previous life, I was a parasitologist and I worked with Strongyles and Schistosomes. And then, I discovered the community college.
I am currently teaching General Biology and Human Anatomy and Physiology in a hybrid/blended format. We have a robust Distance Education department and our college has been delivering distance education courses long before the advent of of online technologies. In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I am also working with some of the high school teachers in our service area. We do teach the "dual enrollment" and "early college" curricula to junior and senior high school students and so I am now involved in science education (curriculum development, mostly). I am interested in authentic assessment of student learning and how to leverage the available technologies to keep students engaged.
