COMMUNICATING AND TEACHING SCIENCE
 
 

A couple of technological advancements today make the learning experience incomparably better than it was even in the recent past. International and local repositories of audio/video lectures and conferences, as iTunes U or the Royal Society, allow to rewind the lesson, leave/regain the attendance at our convenience. Not to mention the many websites presenting javascript routines to simulate a number of scientific experiments by changing

Prologue
I started my teaching experience in 1985, by providing the units of Biomathematics and Biostatistics at the Medical School of the University of Udine. Then I taught Biomechanical Methods, Neuromuscular Control and Exercise Physiology at the Manchester Metropolitan University in the UK. 
Currently I teach Human Physiology to medical students at the University of Milan, Italy.

METHODOLOGY
I am convinced that effective teaching relies on teacher’s consistency, enthusiasm, integrative knowledge, communication skills, mastering teaching technology, and, finally, intellectual challenging the students.

Technology and vision
In recent times I refined my teaching technique, which already incorporated images, movies and animations, by including web simulations, what-if Excel sheets and real-time web searches. 

The same approach is used when communicating scientific research at conferences.
