I have valuable experience in curriculum development. I have developed two courses that are now regularly offered at the University of Pennsylvania, Ethnic Economies and Globalization and Immigrant Urban Labor in the U.S. I also have experience working with undergraduate chairs and program directors to propose new courses, certifying courses to meet university requirements, and collaborating with academic and student programming. For example, at Temple University I applied for a course I regularly teach, Asian Diaspora, to be re-certified to meet new writing intensive requirements and at the University of Pennsylvania, I had the two aforementioned courses certified to meet the cultural diversity in the U.S. sector requirement. In the process, I have become familiar with how individual courses are part of larger departmental and programmatic curriculum planning as well as with university rubrics for evaluating proposed courses, certifications, and curriculum design.
