description
My role was to provide feedback to Lamanna during the dissertation defense, with specific attention to the relationship between her written chapters and her digital media chapters. (She was presenting some of the first all-digital chapters in a dissertation, so I was on hand to help explain their scholarly significance, if needed.) As of 2009, Lamanna is an assistant professor and Writing Center Director at Colorado State University. Her digital dissertation process opened a larger research study for her (with a colleague from UIUC, Kathie Gossett, with whom I work on Kairos) about digital dissertations in graduate schools and implementing digital media coursework into graduate curricula. They have presented at multiple conferences on this topic.
