Dr. Laura Dumin has been experimenting with transformative learning tools in the classroom for over 7 years. She finds that when students are engaged in the lessons, learning can happen organically, leading to more interesting class periods and longer-term gains in understanding concepts. Laura mixes her background in technical writing into all of her courses, bringing ideas of audience and clear communication into assignments. When she is not teaching, she works as a co-managing editor for the 'Journal of Transformative Learning' and as a campus SoTL mentor, while directing the Technical Writing BA and advising the Composition and Rhetoric MA programs. She has also recently begun exploring the impact of generative AI on writing classrooms and runs a Facebook learning community to allow instructors to learn from each other.
