Teaching & Advising

Over the last decade, Dr. Maddox has taught numerous undergraduate and graduates courses in Communication, Research Methods, Creative Media, and Media Studies. Two of these were uniquely developed courses: Social Media & Society, a humanistic survey of historical and contemporary issues in an internet-based society, and Social Media Storytelling, one of the the first “How to be a Content Creator” classes in the world. Dr. Maddox teaches both theoretical and media production courses.

Dr. Maddox has advised students who have gone to win university awards such as Outstanding Dissertation, Outstanding Thesis, and Outstanding Undergraduate Research Project.
