Don Payne

I am currently the director of ISUComm, a university-wide curricular initiative to strengthen the teaching of communication, especially written, oral, visual, and electronic modes. I am interested in new media theory and digital rhetoric and methodologies for assessing integrated multimodal communication. I am an avid gardener, genealogist, and collector (books, DVDs, watercolors).
