Teaching and Learning

I think that professors' continuing efforts to write and present material is crucial to teaching and learning. That includes efforts at the Foothill community as well as outside of Foothill. I think such efforts are imperative to stay current in my field and to actively add to your course work as well as the knowledge base in the field itself. The following is a chronological list of my efforts in this regard during the 2004-2005 academic year. I will continue to add to my site each year from now on. These links and PDF files will hopefully assist you in your own teaching and learning:

Here are two examples of Dr. Heiser's recent academic research. The article on Kurt Maetzig grew out of a NEH seminar at Amherst. The article on Gen. Stilwell grew out of a Hays-Fulbright seminar in China. If you have any questions or comments to make about these articles, please e-mail Dr. Heiser.

This is a classroom activity which I use in Poli 8, which is intended to help other teachers explore the complex issues surrounding German unification in 1990. Falk Cammin and I collaborated on the creation of this site.
