【開箱大學教授】The Spirit of Innovation and Change in Teaching and Service|Corey Fernandez, Assistant Professor at Nevada State University (3)

Professor Corey is deeply passionate about teaching. Her decision to take up a position at a comprehensive university after completing her Ph.D. clearly shows that she is not someone who desires to isolate herself in an ivory tower, seeking great personal achievements in research. Instead, she has committed to making teaching and service her primary missions as an educator. She dedicates over 90% of her time and energy to teaching and service, while maintaining a keen awareness of the constantly evolving dynamics of the classroom. Most of her research is also related to education.
