The Teaching Site

My home page is a "one-stop shop" which combines links to both work-related and personal information--it contains links to, among other items, each course that I teach, the Tomball College Online English Dept. Home Page, some student Web pages I help with, some of my poetry and fiction projects, the East Texas/Louisiana Regional ACW Home Page, and other sites, including hypertext fiction and technical reports written by my students, and even a link to my daughter's home page!

Our first English composition and rhetoric course via modem was taught in Fall 1993 using a local bulletin board service (Wildcat BBS). Since that time, we have expanded our course offerings to include literature and technical communications courses as well, and have moved all courses to the World Wide Web.
