Cultural Considerations of Human-Computer Interaction
This graduate course was the first joint advanced degree program in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), and the first course of its kind tought in New Zealand.
// 1990-1999
A full load of teaching (2 classes per semester) was maintained at the graduate and undergraduate levels. A wide range of courses was taught, from small studio art courses (22 students) to medium (55 students) lecture classes. Frequent guest lectures were given in large lecture classes (400 students). Nine new courses, including four interdisciplinary courses, were developed with subject matter focussed on electronic art, interface design, and media studies.
Teaching effectiveness for all courses averaged 4.84 on a 5.0 scale.

On the committe to develop Computational media, the joint undergraduate degreee program. My contribution includes 3 visual design classes, an experimental media (phsysical computing) class, as well as brudges to and coherence among and the visually-oriented CS classes (graphics, animation, special effects, HCCI, information visualization) .
As the result of a GVU seed grant, helped develop the College of Computing's new introductory programming course, required of all undergraduate students, with Mark Guzdial and Jay Bolter. Measurably, its a very successful change.
Primary team member of the proposed Ph.D. program which began in the FAll of 2004. Co-developed two new courses in research methodologies. Primary tem amember of the curriculum revision committee for the Master's program in Information Design and Technology. Developed new courses : New Media Genres II, Visual Culture I, Visual Culture II, Experimental Media.
On university-wide curiculum committees for technology integration.
Recipient of serveral significant interdisciplinary curriculum development grants accross colleges.
Co-developed and team taught two graduate level classes with faculty from the College of Computer Science and Engineering and the School of Library and Information Science.
Co-developed the new media curricula for graduate and undergraduate studies in the School of Communications.
Co-developed a new undergraduate design curriculum with strong humanities and technology emphasis.
