Teaching

As the Faculty Fellow for Mentoring Initiatives, I receive one course release to devote the appropriate amount of time and attention to that role, so I currently teach two courses per semester. Below are the courses I teach most often.

LIB 5070: Integrating Media and Literature into Instruction

Semester Offered: Spring

This course will consider the learning theories and best practices to collaboratively plan and integrate instruction in schools utilizing literature and media. Topics include understanding student developmental levels and diversity, assessment, alignment with standards, instructional design and teaching strategies, resource selection, multiple literacies, and research processes. 

LIB 5080: Collaborative Media Programming Planning and Evaluation

Semesters Offered: Fall & Spring

Concepts and current practices related to planning, implementing, and evaluating a media program as an integral part of the school.
