I am working on an ongoing project that explores ways that college instructors can utilize theatre training and scholarship in non-theatre classrooms. This project currently has three parts:

• "Dramaturging the Mathematical Mystic." The early stages of this work were presented at the American Society for Theatre Research (ASTR) conference in November 2019. The final study will be based on a new theatre/math course - co-taught by a theatre scholar and mathematician.
• "Embody a Scholar." This study explores the impact of an assignment in which first-year-writing students present a scholar's work as their own, embodying the role of a scholar. The early stages of this work were presented at the Bucknall Teaching Conference in 2018. 
• "Student-Written: Building Community through Performance and Performance Reviews.” This paper will examine the impact of student-written reviews on a student's feeling of belonging at the university. The student-written reviews will be written on student-written plays and will be posted in an online public space. I will explore the dual impact on the student playwrights and the student reviewers, both of whom are participating in acts of generosity to the university community through writing.
