This

co-designed and taught with Patricia
Moy in 2003. Also taught by
Gerry Philipsen in 2005 and in
2007-2008 by
David Domke. For six years, ending in 2009, this was
a required

the
principle of public scholarship.
Communication Theory
Development (COM
500)
I
co-taught this required graduate seminar with Leah
Ceccarelli, adapted from syllabi
produced by several other faculty, most recently Kirsten
Foot.
Intercultural Communication
I taught this as a graduate and then as an undergraduate course to introduce students
to the work of the Cultural
Cognition Project and explore with them the means of potentially
bridging this particular cultural divide. The syllabi for both courses are available at the Project website.
Student Projects
Many students in my Political Deliberation course have made contributions to the participedia.net website, which archives projects in public engagement.
