She is the author of a recently published foundational Communication textbook entitled Through the Screen: Analog Communication in a Digital Age.<\/p>\n<p><em>Although I\u2019ve been teaching online and hybrid courses for several years, it was the introduction of an online version of Interpersonal Communication that really got me excited about what I could do in a digital academic setting. The idea of an Interpersonal Communication class on a digital platform seems counter-intuitive, but with innovative methods, engaging activities, and meaningful assessment practices, I can now bring a surprisingly similar experience to those students who choose not to take these classes on campus. It\u2019s been incredibly exciting for me to see how online learning continues to grow\u2014both at my community college and in the academic world at large\u2014and I firmly believe that continuing to develop dynamic and engaging materials for online learning is a great way to produce critical thinkers and lifelong learners.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maya Greene is an Associate Professor of Communication Studies at Columbia-Greene Community College, specializing in Interpersonal and Intercultural Communication.
