keivan stassun is a professor of astronomy and the co-director of the fisk-vanderbilt ma-to-phd bridge<\/a> program. in astr 205, keivan stassun guides upper level undergraduates toward a greater understanding of the origin and evolution of matter as well as the tools and methods of astrophysics. keivan describes his approach in this class as fairly traditional, using mostly a \u201cchalk talk\u201d approach. in the post-class discussion, we will consider the teaching choices keivan makes in this course as well as approaches he uses to make his classroom more inclusive. in addition, we will discuss lessons from the bridge program that can be translated to the undergraduate experience.<\/p>\n
