Design Justice, Rhetorical Theory, Digital Studies
My pedagogy compiles approaches from technical and professional communication, digital studies, and writing studies, and my courses focus on the ways dis/misinformation and conspiracy theories circulate, contemporary critical and rhetorical theory, and social media-based communication. Depending on the topic of my courses, I typically categorize them as thinking or making classes (with overlap between the two, of course), wherein the thinking classes cover critical and rhetorical theory, as well as theories of writing and communication, and the making courses work to put theory into practice.
Overall, my courses cover the ways media ecologies operate—namely, how dis- and misinformation circulate and how conspiracy theories form and flourish—contemporary critical and rhetorical theory, and visual communication with a focus on user-centered design. I also teach students rhetorical and digital methodologies for working with, in, and for communities, as well as user experience methods for revising and testing materials for their discrete audiences. We have a lot of fun going outside of the classroom, more often than not, and my students often find themselves interviewing others, testing their materials, and getting perspectives that will help shape their projects rather than sitting and listening to a lecture.
I love talking teaching and pedagogy, especially using technology in daily activities and projects. If you ever want to chat about these topics, please reach out. On this page, you'll find my current courses and their descriptions. I no longer have my syllabi and other learning materials available on this website, but if you would like to see how I approach these classes, please send me an email.
