Courses
My work consists mostly of teaching a variety of courses more or less linked to subject matter of rhetoric, specifically writing. I have been at this, in some form or another, since the Fall Semester of 1997, which when I stop to do the math means I’ve somehow slouched into my second decade at this task. Indexed and linked below is a selected record of that first decade and this new one. This is only a simple index, please see my teaching portfolio for greater and more reflective detail. Please Note: My teaching portfolio is currently being recoded to fit the overall design of this site.
The links below will take you to .pdf versions of my syllabi for these courses. You will need the Adobe Reader to view them.
