TEACHING PORTFOLIO

 

I have had 16 years of experience convening undergraduate and postgraduate courses that integrate the fundamental aspects of critical and cultural theory. Responsibilities have included preparing developing course curriculum and syllabi for courses, delivering lectures, coordinating and managing tutorials, developing course assignments as well as formal examination papers and subsequent marking schemes. A large part of my teaching involves the incorporation of multimodality to enhance meaning formation.

 

Classes convened at the postgraduate level create an environment where students are guided into the ways in which to conduct small scale research projects.

 

I have convened and taught the following courses:
