Teaching
As an educator, Dr. Leonard clearly demonstrates both a keen interest and high standard of excellence in teaching. While at Georgia Tech, Dr. Leonard has developed four graduate level courses; one core CEE undergraduate course; advised or co-advised seven doctoral students (including Daiheng Ni, a co-author on six of Dr. Leonard’s publications) and taught portions of twenty-four continuing education courses. He consistently ranked among the best teachers (as quantified by in-class teaching evaluations) in CEE. Professor Leonard effectively applies teaching technologies to enhance his courses, including creative delivery of course materials via the worldwide web, and has instructed other professors about teaching technologies as part of the Board of Regents Faculty Development Workshop, and the Center for Enhanced Teaching and Learning (CETL) at Georgia Tech.
