I've been teaching classes on writing, rhetoric, and digital media since 2011. If you want a comprehensive list of every class I've taught you can check out my CV, but here you can find a smattering overview of the classes I teach most often. 

Intro to Digital Texts and Media

This class introduces students to basic concepts in digital rhetoric and visual design with an emphasis on how meaning is shaped through images, layout, and platform conventions. Students analyze everyday digital texts and create their own visual materials for real-world audiences.

  • Design projects including flyers, social media graphics, and websites
  • Attention to audience, ethics, and platform-specific communication

  • Audience analysis and usability-focused communication
  • Collaboration, revision, and project management practices
  • Attention to accessibility, and professional standards
