Dr. Sergey Rybas has been
part of Capital University’s professional writing program since 2008. His
research areas include power, subjectivity and identity issues in
computer-mediated communication; performances of online community; multimodal
teaching and learning; and epistemologies of the information age. He has also
been involved in projects exploring politics, practices and performances of
nationality and nationalism and has specifically focused on issues of national
identification and difference in Eastern Europe and the former USSR.
Seeing the application of
his research to a broad spectrum of disciplines in humanities and social
sciences, he advocates critical cultural literacy as a primary goal of an
interdisciplinary and intercultural dialogue on problems related to production,
dissemination and interpretation of knowledge.
