John White encourages students to utilize all of the tools that are available to them to maximize their learning experience. He commonly poses thought questions during lectures, allowing for student-to-student discussion, and requiring constant student feedback.
His office hours are typically filled with students reviewing content emphasizing the teach-reteach method. Early in the semester much of this time is spent teaching time management methods, pre-lecture preparation, and study strategies for optimal retention.
Fun fact: John White once spent an entire summer after college driving around the country in a VW van, visiting as many national parks as time and money would allow! The van only broke down 3 times.
