Greetings,
This school year marks my 20th year teaching in California; my fourth year at Silver Springs and second year at Ghidotti. I have taught Earth Science, Integrated Science, Biology and Chemistry and Video Production at both continuation and general high schools throughout my career. I am credentialed in Geoscience (aka Earth Science), Biology, Chemistry and have a CTE Credential in Media Arts (Video Production). I also taught guitar at Berkely Adult School and was the director of Camp Jam, a summer rock n' roll music camp for kids 7-17 years old. I have taught at both continuation and general high schools throughout my career.
My Science goal is to have students be able to see the physical world around them with wider eyes by gaining an understanding of how the things we need and use from Earth were created; what is in the items we buy, food we eat, water we drink and the air we breathe...and how do we interact with them? The goal is to not only learn in class, but to have that spark to be a lifelong learner (because the learning really only begins in the classroom). My Media goal is to spur higher consciousness through creativity via sound and vision, which can draw from beyond the physical world.
In addition to teaching, I love to explore nature and play guitar in a band. Also, we have two dogs named Ollie and (his daughter) Daphne who are full of energy and keep us on our toes...never a dull moment here.
Sincerely,
Mr. Dangerfield
Environmental Science/Chemistry/Media Arts & Music Teacher
