Key themes in my project...

Relationship between digital technologies and narrative literature   Rhetoric of digital media   Representations of writing in hypermedia   Impact of new media on student learning

I'm the Director of Research and Learning Technologies for the Center for New Designs in Learning and Scholarship at Georgetown University. I also teach in the Department of English, act as campus coordinator for the Visible Knowledge Project, and serve on the VKP Project Team. Before coming to Georgetown University, I taught at Syracuse University, the University of Hartford, and Ohio State University. My research and teaching interests include New media studies, Literary Theory--with specialties in Narrative and Post-structuralist theories--and 20th-century Fiction, with specialities in metafiction, science fiction, and postmodernism.

About my research in student learning...

I am interested in exploring how new media environments can help students develop deeper and more enduring understanding of complex narrative concepts such as metafiction and intertextuality, as well as helping them to develop more sophisticated strategies for reading and textual analysis.

  • In what ways do the narrative elements of digital media allow students to approach textual analysis in more intricate and multifaceted ways?
  • How can digital media complicate and ultimately clarify our concept of the text?
  • How do new media contexts create new opportunities for thinking about the relationship between writing and textual analysis?
