I am Dr. Harris, a mathematics faculty member dedicated to advancing Calculus education through evidence-based instructional methods. My teaching philosophy emphasizes the use of research-backed strategies to improve student learning, engagement, and long-term retention of complex mathematical concepts.

I am honored to have received a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) through the Historical Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) to enhance mathematics learning experiences. With this support, I have successfully implemented three key evidence-based instructional approaches: web-based learning, Julia coding, and peer-led team learning (PLTL).

Using Julia coding, I developed original Calculus learning materials that have significantly improved my students’ understanding and retention of course content. This innovation contributed to a noticeable increase in the passing rate of my Calculus classes. Committed to open education, I freely share these Julia-based Calculus lessons on this website for educators and institutions to use and adapt.

I welcome questions, feedback, and collaboration to continue improving the learning experience for Calculus students everywhere.
