Virtual Learning Worlds

After successfully defending my dissertation on May 5th, it is now official: I graduated on August 15th, 2009 with a Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Workforce Education and Development from the College of Education, the Pennsylvania State University.

With the new degree in hand, I’m in the midst of a job search. I re-organized the site a bit, adding information to the Presentations page, creating a Publications page with a few articles and other materials I’ve authored, and finally a CV page that contains a link to my curriculum vitae. I have a couple more pages in mind that might show up soon, but this covers it for now. I’m applying for jobs all over the map, from industry jobs with Blizzard Entertainment, to administrator positions at universities and lastly tenure-track positions at teaching-oriented universities.

If anyone in the virtual world/game blogosphere is reading and has a vacancy, feel free to drop me a message so we can discuss further!
