Welcome
I'm Derek Mueller, Assistant Professor of Written Communication and Director of the First-year Writing Program at Eastern Michigan University. My teaching and research concern the interplay of writing, rhetoric, and technology. More specifically, I am motivated by questions concerning digital writing platforms, networked writing practices, theories of composing, rhetorical aspects of computational methods (e.g., data mining and visualization), archiving and databases, visual and geospatial rhetorics, and discipliniographies or field narratives related to Rhetoric and Composition.
