For courses delivered prior to the winter of 2017, I was the primary point of contact for course development. In 2016, I hired an instructor, Signe Danler, to revise and deliver the course. In 2019, I hired a second instructor, Mykl Nelson, to develop and deliver coursework in urban agriculture. I work closely with both instructors to co-develop, review, and deliver the courses. However, Ms. Danler and Mr. Nelson serve as the primary instructor for their respective courses.Online Master Gardener Course: This course is offered as a 13-week, instructor-led course to train Master Gardener volunteers. Students may opt to take the same course for a Certificate of Home Horticulture, without the volunteer requirement. We collaborate with the Oregon State Department of Corrections to deliver the same course to incarcerated students in adult and youth facilities around the State.TermMaster Gardener VolunteersCertificate of Home Horticulture StudentsDepartment of Corrections StudentsTotal2021, Winter1001002020, Summer46462020, Winter2646722019, Summer45452019, Winter39331852572018, Summer22222018, Winter36442002802017, Winter30341362642016, Winter2252252015, Winter81933012014, Fall16162014, Winter22271632122013, Fall27272013, Winter23191251672012, Fall36362012, Winter243634942011, Fall45452011, Winter332715752010, Fall31312010, Winter3737742009, Fall55552009, Winter3736732008, Fall4545Total3157071,2762,562Online Urban Agriculture: This course is offered as a 10-week, instructor-led course to train aspiring and practicing urban agriculturists.

I created and narrated the original set of lessons, developed in 2008 for the instructor-led online Master Gardener course. Starting in 2016, Signe Danler was hired as the online Master Gardener course instructor. At that point, my role shifted to oversight and review of course revisions and new course development. Students register and work through lessons at their own pace. Modules marked with an asterisk were free. All other modules were at cost of $45 (July 2017 and later) or $20 (June 2017 and earlier).

I began teaching ENT 311 in the spring of 2016.? Although I was provided a past syllabus as guidance, I largely built the course from scratch. I chose a new textbook, developed a new syllabus (placing more emphasis on topics such as pesticides), and created 27 new lectures. In spring 2017, I placed more emphasis on lab development, and began working to develop a formal lab manual (with instructor notes) for ENT 311 lab.ENT/HORT 444/555, Insect Agroecology: Fall 2014 – present. This new course was first taught in the spring of 2015 and 2016, as a ‘Special Topics’ course (ENT/HORT 499/599). The course went through a Category II proposal in 2016-2017, and was offered with its permanent course number (ENT/HORT 444/544) in the spring of 2017. I created this course entirely from scratch, developing the syllabus, lectures and discussion themes.Non-Credit CoursesCitizen Science in the Garden: January 2016 – December 2018. In cooperation with OSU Extension faculty Brooke Edmunds and the Home Horticulture working group, I am working to integrate science literacy and citizen science training and volunteerism into the Extension Master Gardener Program. Dr. Edmunds and I collaborated to develop an online training program. The training consists of a series of five modules (e.g. What is the scientific method?; Components of a valid experiment; Data collection; Science communication; How to critically evaluate scientific claims). One objective of the training is to increase science literacy in volunteers, so that they will be in a position to contribute to and benefit from citizen science programs in Oregon, and beyond. Ultimately, the goal is to promote increased science literacy in the general public, and to support informed decision making and civic participation.Online Master Gardener Training Course: July 2007-present. This curriculum consists of 12 modules, covering topics such as Botany, Entomology, Integrated Pest Management, Pesticides, Sustainable Landscaping, Soils, etc. Each module consists of a set of objectives, associated readings, narrated Power Point lectures, a hands-on assignment, quiz, supporting external links and feedback form. For the first iteration of this course (July 2007-January 2014), I wrote and narrated Power Point lectures for 10.5 out of 12 modules; wrote all assignments, quizzes and feedback forms; and posted all supporting external links. Since 2010, the course has been offered to incarcerated youth and adults, in cooperation with the non-profit, Growing Gardens. In 2016, I hired an Instructor (Ms. Signe Danler) to oversee a massive revision of the course, in close cooperation with me. Ms. Danler develops the revised modules. I review and edit revised modules, prior to their going ‘live’ on the course.Outcomes and Impact: Enrollment in the online Master Gardener course, short course modules, has grown substantially since my last promotion (239 in 2012 to 4,978 in 2016). The online short courses are used by Master Gardener volunteers (to fill curricular gaps), as well as by the general public (to increase general gardening knowledge). For the online course offered in Oregon’s correctional facilities, the Oregon Department of Corrections reports a recidivism rate of 5%, for the 533 adult inmates who have completed the course and have been released. The statewide recidivism rate for Oregon is 30%.Growing Healthy Kids: 2007-2016. This peer-reviewed curriculum consists of 12 modules, covering topics such as: vegetable gardens, edible plant parts, physical activity, healthy meals, etc. The objectives of the curriculum are to: increase 7-8 year olds’ exposure to fruits and vegetables by tending a garden; increase their consumption of fruits and vegetables; and model healthy food and lifestyle choices. The curriculum represents the collaborative efforts of SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) Nutrition Educators and Community Horticulture Faculty. I was the primary author for all lesson plans and parent letters. I wrote the introductory materials, edited the gardening resources section and coordinated the activities of peer-reviewers, as well as an educational consultant, copy editor and graphic artist who were contracted to work on the curriculum. In 2010, the curriculum was pilot-tested by Nutrition Educators across Oregon. In 2011, Growing Healthy Kids was taught in 18 Oregon Counties. In 2012, a revised version was released and taught in 31 out of Oregon’s 36 counties. Rutgers University, the Department of Health in Maryland, and a nutrition educator in Indonesia have also adopted this curriculum. Outcomes and Impact: An impact evaluation (conducted in fall 2016 by Dr. Marc Braverman and colleagues in the OSU College of Public Health) found that children who received the GHK curriculum displayed significantly greater changes (pre-test to post-test), compared to children in the comparison group, for the total number of fruits and vegetables eaten (p<0.001), and the mean score for ‘liking’ 10 different vegetables (p=0.002). In addition, the gain scores of GHK students were greater than those of comparison group students, at borderline significance levels, on two outcomes: having fruits and vegetables to eat at home (p=.067) and having a positive preference for trying new vegetables (p=.063). Overall, the GHK curriculum was found to have multiple positive outcomes related to children’s eating habits and food preferences, and thus supports Extension’s mission of leveraging research-based knowledge and education to promote healthy families and individuals.Urban Pesticide Reduction Program, July 2008-June 2009. This curriculum (abbreviated as UPRP) consisted of 3 classes (e.g. pesticides defined, reading a pesticide label, alternatives to pesticides), which trained Master Gardeners to deliver pesticide reduction classes to interested neighbors within their community. I wrote the curriculum, as well as instructor notes, for all 3 classes. I assembled a binder of curricular support materials for UPRP instructors, and I intensively trained 20 Master Gardeners to advertise and deliver the program in their community.
