Interactive Slideshow for Politics & Religion Course

Religion remains a powerful force in American political life, despite perspectives that the US is becoming more secular. This Humanities course examines the relationship between religion and politics from a variety of social and philosophical perspectives while establishing a historical framework within which to assess the role of religion in contemporary politics. The slideshow shown here relies on interactive media to provide a visually-rich approach to the subject matter while giving students freedom to explore a variety of resources and topics at their own pace. While browsing the digital photos and portraits of historic and contemporary political figures, students can read notable quotes and follow links to biographical information.

Labor Studies: Informational Learning Resources

The Labor Studies faculty at the School for Graduate Studies came to me requesting a website for their department. Using the Commons Platform (Wordpress) I created their site and included things like course offerings and descriptions, some sample material, websites for more information, programs of study, and faculty. The site can be viewed at: http://commons.esc.edu/laborstudies/
