Teaching

My classes emphasize equipping students to think, converse, and write as historians: to consider important historical trends, participate in careful analysis of texts and events, and to engage with key questions. I believe students at all levels can fruitfully engage primary sources and can analyze—and join in—scholarly debates about important issues.

My teaching experience includes a wide variety of courses related to European history, Western civilization, religious history, and the history of print.

Courses taught include:

• University of North Alabama
  • Printing and Bookmaking to c.1800 (graduate seminar, online).
  • The Tudors (graduate seminar, online).
  • Independent Research (graduate, online).
  • History of England to 1688 (undergraduate, online).
  • The English Reformation (graduate and undergraduate, online).
• Vanderbilt University
  • Witchcraft, Supernatural Phenomena, and Print Culture in Early Modern England, 1558-1650 (writing-intensive undergraduate seminar).
  • The Real Tudors (undergraduate seminar).
