Teaching
I have taught art appreciation, art history, art education and studio courses during the
past ten years with a focus on diversity, feminist/queer theory, and visual culture. My
research and pedagogy are guided by Judith Butler’s theory of gender performativity
in conversation with Julia Serano’s discussion of oppositional sexism. Additionally, my
teaching is influenced by critical pedagogy and methodology. Technology, its theories
and application, and in particular emerging digital technologies (e.g., social media), play a
prominent role in my research and teaching practice.
I teach online art appreciation courses at a local community college; and for three years,
I taught courses in computers in art education and global aesthetics for undergraduate
preservice art educators at the University of North Texas. My goal is for students to
critically examine their lives and experiences and that of their future students, through/
within the intersections of race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and other constructed
identities. In my courses we analyze these subjectivities through multiple theoretical
lenses, e.g., feminist epistemology, visual culture, and critical pedagogy. The objective
is to explore histories, past and present, in which non-dominant groups, e.g., LGBTQ,
people of color and different abilities and working-class groups have been and continue
to be devalued. We explore how these groups have been represented, but most
importantly, how they represent themselves in various fields for example, in literature,
film, visual culture, research, and art. My goal is to help students understand and analyze
pressing issues faced by marginalized groups in contemporary times, for example,
poverty, lack of opportunities, violence based on race and sexual orientation, and
intellectual colonialism.

Doctoral Teaching Fellow
This course meets 6 hours per week in a computer lab/studio. This course blends
theory with practical application in the classroom as students learn digital
technology uses and how to teach them with instructor consultations.
Student facilitation: Learning to lasso
This graduate-level course is combined with AEAH 3770. Graduate students have
Instructor facilitation: Glitching the classics
the additional responsibilities to create a major project that explores in depth a
topic of personal research interest, chosen in consultation with the instructor.
The project’s components are housed on a student-created Blackboard course
shell and/or published website.
Teaching
In this freshman-level course, I teach students from varying backgrounds and with
differing abilities, most of whom have little to no formal experience with the arts.
Students are challenged to consider and foster their relationship to the arts and
Art Appreciation: My campus re-viewed
visual culture as audience and as active producers.
During my first three years with the district, I restarted the Southeast Campus’s
art metals classes after their two-year absence from that campus. Open to
students regardless of art experience, I successfully ran the courses every long
semester with classes that filled and often had enrollment wait lists. A number of
students won awards for their work, had work featured in magazines, or started
small businesses.
Teaching
Similarly to how I taught this course at TCC, I taught the course in a variety of
formats over time from traditional 3-day-per-week lectures to hybrid/blended
half-online sections with numerous field trips to musuems and galleries to
technology-intensive real-time research-based collaborative endeavors in a
computer classroom. Whether in-person or online visits to cultural institutions,
students produced scholarly and creative works, such as ekphrastic responses
Art Appreciation: Ekphrastic response to artworks they viewed. These responses were tailored to exercise students’
existing creative practices, broadly conceived.
