Biographical Sketch:
Professor Kristen Miller received her Ph.D. from Auburn University in 2010. Her doctoral studies focused on rhetoric and composition, and her dissertation, Using Film to Teach Rhetoric and Multimodal Literacy, examined uses for film-based texts in first-year college composition classes in order to improve students’ understanding of rhetorical principles. After
serving many years as the assistant coordinator of Auburn University’s writing center as a graduate student, her primary research interests focus on improving writing instruction and tutoring; her current line of research for this purpose seeks to adapt the teaching strategies
employed in the design of video games for application to writing instruction. Other research interests have her examining literature and popular culture (particularly texts in the horror genre) through a rhetorical lens. Her overriding passion is for empowering students in all facets of their lives through improved communication skills and rhetorical literacy. More complete information on her scholarly and creative work can be found at her website, http://kristenbmiller.net .
