Sample Lessons

I design learning experiences that reach students where they are while pushing them forward.

Narratives, trials, films, and lives share a universal grammar with papers: a beginning, middle, and end. The best of the former can inspire the latter. As the former popular culture syllabus approach leader from Purdue, I find that exploring the parallels between art and writing help students learn how to deliver daring drafts. To that end, the following lessons are guides to help writers start, develop, and end their research papers. They were created on Adobe Creative Cloud Express with art that ties conceptually to the topics at hand.
