Minda C Webber
Instructor Department of History Office Location: 358 Admin. Bldg. Email: mwebber@uiwtx.eduI have taught on and off most of my life and the things I have done in life have made me a better teacher. I was fortunate to work in the Texas Oil and Gas Fields as a Geological Consultant when I was younger at a time when not many women were in the Oil and Gas fields. The experiences I had there, I share with my students in teaching about Women's Rights.
I also was also lucky enough to have an editor believe in my writing. I was published by Dorchester (LoveSpell) Books and able to experience autographing my books for actual fans at Book Signing events. The drive to write and edit a book serves me when I am creating Power Points for my lectures.
My sister wrote for cartoons and I was able to be her writing partner for a cartoon series which aired on ABC. This experience really helped me when I taught the History of Animation for several years. So basically, the skills you learn, you expand upon to make your classes interesting and interactive.
