Teaching

My courses

I teach courses in English and Technical Communication, including:

TCH COM 4450/6450, Writing Proposals

TCH COM 3440/6440, Theory of Visual Technical Communication

TCH COM 6070, Teaching Technical Communication

Teaching Methods and Approaches

Depending on the course, I employ service learning, active learning, client projects, portfolios, and lots of collaboration and group work.

Student Engagement

I encourage student engagement through active participation in discussions, group projects, and presentations. I also offer virtual office hours and am often open to questions and discussions outside of class time.

Office Hours

I hold office hours in HSS 216 regularly (see Canvas). I can be reached most anytime by email, northcut@mst.edu

Professional Development

I encourage students to complete internships, and can help students locate and select internships. I encourage all ETC majors to join professional societies and participate in them.

Feel free to reach out to me at northcut@mst.edu or during my office hours for any questions or clarifications.
