About Me:

I'm a resident teacher for the Ordinary Mind Zen group in Austin, a group based on Joko Beck's model contemporary Zen practice. I am also the mother of a son, Ben, a new media artist and software developer who lives in Chicago.
In my work, I am the Director of the Undergraduate Writing Center at the University of Texas, and a professor in the Department of Rhetoric and Writing there. I teach graduate and undergraduate courses such as Nonviolent Rhetoric, Information Architecture, Virtual Worlds, Zen Rhetoric, Knowledge Ecologies, Research Methods in Online Environments, and Minds, Texts, and Technology. My main project is the Learning Record. There is more information about it here: http://www.cwrl.utexas.edu/~syverson/olr
