Dr. Darko Donevski

One of the greatest writers of the XX century, Julio Cortazar, once wrote that "it is necessary to make a big science exploration a collection of many small exploration stages". Like Cortazar, I also think that general teaching philosophy should be a careful combination of several exploration stages (priorities). One is to create an interactive environment that allows for supervised science exploration, which is vital for demanding students' active involvement. Another important component of my teaching philosophy is scientific literacy. That said - knowledge and understanding of scientific concepts and processes required for decision making. These stages are important in preparing students to act as responsible world citizens. However, these tasks are also highly challenging in the current era - global scientific education is still not developed enough to keep up with the rapid flourishing of new science disciplines. My overall goal is to make science education and learning easily accessible, inclusive, by fostering equity and high ethical norms.
