Information for Spring 2009 courses is available here: Math 135-04: Introduction to Probability and Statistics Math 150-02: Algebra and Trigonometry Math 691-01: Computability Theory Information for Fall 2008 courses is available here: Math 117-05: Mathematical Concepts Math 117-06: Mathematical Concepts Math 250-02: Calculus and Analytic Geometry I Information for Spring 2008 courses is available here: Math 150-02: Algebra and Trigonometry Math 505-01: Abstract Algebra I Information on classes from previous terms is available here. I am always very glad to talk with students about the possibility of undergraduate or graduate research projects. I am currently working with an undergraduate on a project, and there are many more problems available. Come and see me if you're interested.	I am currently working on computable model theory. Some of my most recent preprints are listed below. Other preprints may be found here. "Turing degrees of isomorphism types of algebraic objects," with V. Harizanov and A. Shlapentokh (Updated 7/6/2005) [Published in Journal of the London Mathematical Society 75 (2007), 273--286] dvi, ps, pdf "Effective categoricity of Abelian p-groups," with D. Cenzer, V. Harizanov, and A. Morozov [Accepted for publication in Annals of Pure and Applied Logic] pdf "On three notions of effective computation over R," [Submitted to Logic Journal of the IGPL] pdf "Metric structures and probabilistic computation," [Submitted to Transactions of the American Mathematical Society; Note: Additional historical data relating continuous first-order logic to earlier work by Keisler, Henson, and others, may be added in revisions] pdf	I am assigned to Clark College. You can read more about Murray State's Residential College system here. I am currently participating in the West Kentucky Mathemathics Partnership, a professional development project for middle school mathematics teachers. I have also been involved in the West Kentucky Partners in Math and Science Education, which worked with teachers in grades K-8. I am available for separately arranged professional development programs. Contact me if you are interested in arranging something for your school. I also worked in several service capacities while a graduate student at Notre Dame in the academic years 2000-2005. Information on some of these activities may be found here.
