Annual Professional Development Report 2013-2014
Erik Insko, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor of Mathematics
Overview
This report summarizes my professional activities for the period Summer 2013 through Spring 2014. My goal for this year was to maintain a balance of teaching, service, and research activities that is appropriate for FGCU and my professional goals of improvement and advancement. The greatest portion of my time was spent on teaching-related activities, including teaching three courses for the first time, and designing a flipped-classroom structure for all six classes taught during the school year. I worked actively on my research by collaborating with faculty at California State University- San Bernardino, Westpoint, Smith College, and FGCU. I also fostered a number of graduate and undergraduate research projects here at FGCU, and I prepared five papers for submission to a peer-reviewed journals. Finally, I served on the Mathematics Colloquium, ASPiRE, and Assistant Professor of Mathematics Search Committees, and I performed a variety of other service activities. A continued long-term goal is to integrate these different aspects of my professional life here at FGCU.
