I love the Web and everything online – especially designing instruction! My pet projects at the CT2 include designing our online Developing and Teaching Online Courses workshop, managing our Folio Foundations Course Template, and promoting Web accessibility. My background includes teaching graphic design at four different institutions, face-to-face and online.
