This week, I am wrapping up teaching an eight-week, online version of my “Putting the Lit in Literacies” Intro to Fiction course here at IU Bloomington. To celebrate the occasion, I want to share an updated look at one of my favorite summative assessments.

Whether you are a faculty member looking for course design inspiration or an educational developer seeking new strategies to support your colleagues, we can all benefit from tools that can make the course design process more flexible, collaborative, and student-centered.

This spring, I was a finalist for the FACET Innovate Award in the Creative Uses of Online Tools category for one of the first installments in my Empower Your Learning module series.

In March and April 2025, I had the privilege of leading faculty development events with the IU Center of Excellence for Women & Technology and the Digital Gardeners Faculty Fellows Program.

The first week of the semester has come and gone, and with it I’m publishing the first post in my new blog series about my work as teaching faculty at Indiana University Bloomington. This series is intended to document the hidden labor of teaching faculty that often goes unseen, as well as celebrate wins & milestones inside and outside of the classroom. I’ll also use this as a space to share strategies & resources that are newly published or in development.
