As an Instructional Development Specialist, I work with center for teaching and learning staff and faculty on many instructional technology issues.
I am Instructional Development Specialist for Indiana University’s Learning Technology Division, University Information Technology Services. My work has included involvement with the Carnegie CASTL program exploring active learning pedagogies and several grant projects funded by: Fund for the Improvement of Post Secondary Education (FIPSE), National Science Foundation (NSF), and Department of Education (DOE). Presently, as a member of Cohort VI of the Inter/National Coalition for Electronic Portfolio Research, I am exploring the use and best practices in portfolio learning. I am also participating in the FIPSE project: "Connect to Learning: ePortfolio, Engagement, and Student Success," a nationwide educational innovation project focused on exploring and strengthening best practices in ePortfolio pedagogy.

I am an Assistant Professor in the Learning Sciences program at Indiana University.
The overarching theme in my program of research is an examination of how people learn through activity. Learning through activity involves interacting with other people, physical objects, and ideas. Physical objects can range from actual flowers and drawings that label their parts to computer simulations. Similarly, ideas include individual beliefs and preferences, the rules that groups such as classrooms follow, and historically developed concepts that span generations. My research examines how individuals coordinate their actions and ideas within these complex settings, and how this can lead to learning.
A major focus of my work has been examining how young students (5-7 years old) create representations while learning about complex science concepts.
To unpack the process through which individual students engage in and learn through activity, my work is driven by empirical studies that examine:
* The process through which students create and use material representational tools such as drawings, graphs, and computer simulations when they are learning new concepts.
* The reciprocal way in which individual students contribute their own ideas to complex activity systems and appropriate knowledge from those systems.
* The design of new activities and computational tools to support learning while also revealing theoretical and practical insights into how learning ocurrs.

I study participatory approaches to instruction, assessment, and motivation, mostly in e-learning, videogaming, and new media contexts.
I use design-based research methods and situative theories of cognition to improve instruction. I focus on assessment and motivation, and work in a range of digital environments. Now I am mostly focusing on a comprehensive model called Designing for Participation (DFP). DFP is a design-based model for directly fostering participation that also leads to enduring understanding and increased achievement. I also teach graduate courses in the Learning Sciences program.

I am a mid-career, associate professor of History at Indiana University, where I have taught for twenty years, after a three-year stint at Southwest Texas State University. I have been involved in the scholarship of teaching and learning for the past eight years and I also teach in our graduate pedagogy program.
I am an associate professor of history at Indiana University, Bloomington, specializing in the history of medieval Europe. My disciplinary research considers medieval historical writing. I have published a monograph on historical writing in Normandy in the central Middle Ages and a translation of the History of the Counts of Guines and Lords of Ardres, an early thirteenth-century dynastic history from the Artois. I am currently working on an edition, translation, and study of the Chronicon Andrense, from the same region of France. My involvement with SoTL began with a course portfolio for the Peer Review of Teaching project. I have been a fellow of the Freshman Learning Project, which produced the material for a joint article in Decoding the Disciplines: helping Students Learn Disciplinary Ways of Thinking (New Directions in Teaching and Learning, Summer 2004), written with David Pace and Valerie Grim. With Vicky Gunn, I wrote “Doing SotL: A Cross Atlantic Dialogue Reflecting upon the Nature of Teaching and Learning in Medieval Studies,” which has appeared in Arts and Humanities in Higher Education. I am currently a principal investigator (with Arlene Diaz, Joan Middendorf, and David Pace) in the Indiana University History Department Study of Student Learning in History. We have recently published an article in the Journal of American History, "The History Learning Project: A Department "Decodes" its Students."
