As a professor for 26 years and co-founder of zyBooks for 10 years (acquired by Wiley in 2019), today I'm mostly focused on reducing attrition and improving success of college students, especially: (1) in the first two years (where most attrition occurs), (2) in computer science, engineering, and other STEM fields (which have high attrition rates), and (3) among first-generation, low-income, underrepresented students (who have higher attrition rates than others).
