About me

edit

I am an instructional designer working in higher education within the United States, currently I work at a public university in Michigan. I am particularly interested in teaching undergraduate students to build digital literacies around digital information environments. My research interests include open education, online communities, blended and hybrid learning, MOOCs, and other aspects of educational technology. I also teach part-time for a college in Rhode Island where I integrate Wikipedia editing into my teaching.

I don't do any paid work on Wikipedia and am not paid to edit any articles. There is nothing in my job duties as assigned that requires me to edit Wikipedia. I don't have any grants to do editing work on Wikipedia.
