My courses focus on active, collaborative models of learning. Assignments usually work to blur the line between analytic and aesthetic work, encouraging students to adopt a "writerly" attitude toward their work, to use Barthes' phrase.

I regularly teach several courses in the English department at Columbia College Chicago, including:

• Rhetoric of Digital Media (formerly Writing for New Media)
• Literary Genres: Detective Fiction
• Zombies in Popular Media
• Writing and Rhetoric 2

I have also regularly taught the following outside English:

• Game Culture
• First Year Seminar
