Summer 2017 Semester








SES 662 | Assistive Technology for Inclusive Learning and Education
​
This course has led me to reconsider instructional methodologies and pedagogical approaches that best adhere to the preferred learning modalities of diverse students. In addition to exploring the concepts of Universal Design for Learning, I reflected on how different assistive technologies can aid learners in their access to seminal aspects of curricula.






LIS 691 | Independent Study: Oral History Graduate Internship at the Smithsonian Archives of American Art
​​
My internship at the Archives of American Art allowed me practical experience in an archives space and to have collaborative exposure with a team of professional archivists in the field. While working primarily on the Keith Haring Oral History Project: Art in the AIDS Epidemic, l put into practice the theories I have learned in my courses about digitization and the best means to promote access to oral histories. The internship is an interdisciplinary exploration of how archival work and art intersect. The oral histories pertaining to the HIV/AIDS epidemic allowed me to explore gender and sexuality themes as well.
