CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT
I have contributed regularly to the
interdepartmental Linguistics Program, teaching basic General Education
Requirements, as well as advanced courses and special topics. I have also developed large lecture courses
on Native Siberia and Inner Asia that have been combined to form a Minor in
Eurasian Studies. In addition, I have
supervised dozens of student/faculty designed majors involving Russian
studies. To accommodate the needs of the
student designed major, I have developed several new courses, including one on
the structure of Russian and another on Russian culture.
In 2002 I developed a minor in Eurasian Studies, consisting of the
following courses, which I also teach: Eurasian Studies 201 (Introduction to
Russian civilization), 210 (Introduction to Nomadic civilizations, 310 (The
origins of Europe), 450 (Topics in Eurasian Studies).
