ASSETT Teaching with Technology Symposium: 
'Rewriting the syllabus: New hybrid and online pedagogies' 

Attend ASSETT's 2nd Annual Teaching with Technology Symposium Keynote speech, “Rewriting the Syllabus: New Hybrid and Online Pedagogies,” with Dr. Jesse Stommel of the University of Wisconsin-Madison on April 28, 2014 from 3 until 5:30 p.m. in the Glenn Miller East. Admission is free, but registration is requested. The Symposium celebrates faculty across campus who have engaged in efforts to achieve excellence in teaching with technology. View projects from the participants of present and past ASSETT Faculty Teaching with Technology and Hybrid & Online Course Design Seminars. Dr. Stommel, CU-Boulder ‘10, is currently an Assistant Professor of Digital Humanities at University of Wisconsin-Madison. His recent work focuses on postmodern bodies and haptic interfaces. 

Dr. Stommel is the Founder and Director of Hybrid Pedagogy, an open access digital journal of learning, teaching, and technology that explores critical, digital and online pedagogies while reexamining the roles of students and teachers. He is an advocate for lifelong learning and the public digital humanities. In his work with students, teachers, and educational institutions, he avoids valorizing educational technology, but seeks to interrogate and investigate technological tools to determine their most progressive applications. Of late, Dr. Stommel has been investigating the future of higher education by delving into the world of MOOCs, co-hosting and co-designing MOOC MOOC. 

Dr. Stommel has taught hybrid courses since 1999 and fully online courses since 2007. His teaching and scholarly work run the gamut from film theory to digital media to 19th Century American literature. Jesse earned his BA, MA, and Ph.D. in English from University of Colorado Boulder.

In addition to the key note speech, a small group discussion with Dr. Stommel is also available on April 28, from 10:30 a.m. until 12 p.m. in Norlin E113.
