Teaching Assistant Work

Description

During my time as a Masters in Computer Science student at UOIT, I had the opportunity to work as a teaching assistant (TA). I was a TA for the following courses:

• Computer Animation Algorithms and Techniques
  • This course explored the algorithms and techniques used by real time applications such as games. Topics include: interpolation methods, forward and inverse kinematics and skinning.
• Intermediate Computer Graphics
  • This course explored modern rendering algorithms and techniques used in real time applications. Topics include: Rendering using OpenGL 4.0+ core contexts, depth of field and bloom.

Below is a list of tutorials and labs I have prepared for the above courses (the cool ones are in bold):

• Interpolation (Computer Animation, lab)
  • LERP, Catmull & Bezier
  • Mesh Morphing
• Skinning (Computer Animation, lab)
  • Forward Kinematics
  • HTR file loader
  • The skinning equation
• Framebuffer Objects (Computer Graphics, tutorial)
  • Video tutorials
• Convolution (Computer Graphics, tutorial)
  • Video tutorials
• Geometry Shaders (Computer Graphics, tutorial)
  • Video tutorials
• Bloom (Computer Graphics, lab)
  • Bloom
• Depth of Field (Computer Graphics, lab)
  • Depth of Field
• Cube Mapping (Computer Graphics, tutorial)
  • Presented live in class
• Debugging with NSight and RenderDoc (Computer Graphics, tutorial)
  • Presented live in class
