I, like much of the rest of the world, enjoy blogging: I blog for fun, for scholarly work, and for teaching as well. Browse the links below to see examples of my blogs and wikis.

Professional Blogs

Educational Blogs

English 111 Final Project Blog: This class, which met in a computer-mediated classroom in the Fall of 2006, developed a blog to introduce incoming freshmen to BGSU and to the city of Bowling Green. Their individual essays evaluated various locations on and off-campus of their choosing.

English 111 Community Blog: This class blog, from the Fall of 2007, encouraged students to take our discussion beyond the (traditional) classroom walls.

English 207 Class Blog: This blog, from the Fall of 2007, aided classroom discussion and helped each student gain a voice in the classroom.

English 207 Class Wiki: This wiki served as our class website, in place of the usual BGSU-sponsored BlackBoard system. Students were active in creating and revising pages via discussion.

English 381 Google Group: This site replaced BlackBoard as well as the blog in 2008 to represent our class's virtual presence.

Entertainment Blog
