  I conducted a class with 10-15 students in the Princeton course, Introduction to Cognitive Neuroscience (NEU202). The class took place every week for 50 minutes. I facilitated a discussion among the group about the research article that was looked at for the week. The topics ranged from memory to reward. I created a slide deck every week and answered all my students' questions about the paper in review for the week. I really enjoyed leading the group and aiding the students in organizing their thoughts about the discussion topic. Show less
