Teaching

List of courses taught in logic, and interfaces with  philosophy, mathematics, linguistics, computer science, and economics.

My current teaching is mainly on dynamic logics of information flow and games, and mathematics of modal logic.

I also pursue introductory educational projects, as logic in its modern guise belongs in the curriculum everywhere. One new project is a Spinoza gateway course 'Logic in Action' (launched March 2009) of the Dutch Open University, prepared with colleagues in the Logic Education Group.
