Biographical Information

I am currently a Visiting Scientist at the MIT Media Lab in the Affective Computing Research Group. My long-term field of research is the Role of Emotions in Learning. I am currently working on the role of StoryCraft as a traditional method of learning.

I am also a volunteer science educator in the Discovery Spaces at the Boston Museum of Science.

My other affiliations include the Institute for Intelligent Systems at the University of Memphis and the School of Communication and Journalism at Utah State University where I assist in the curriculum in Online Journalism.

I was formerly a Visiting Scientist in the Educational Technology Research Group at BBN Systems and Technologies. Additional professional background information can be found here.

My interest in writing encyclopedia articles in my areas of expertise dates back to 2004 when I co-authored an 8-page article entitled "Electronic (Virtual) Communities" in the Encyclopedia of International Media and Communications.

Some of my other research interests include puzzlecraft, building online communities, and the functional characteristics of rule-driven systems.

I have a Home Page at MIT, a Personal Home Page, and a personal blog called Moulton Lava. There is also a collection of essays and lighter pieces on Moulton's Utnebury Pages.

Objectives

My primary objective here is to achieve a respectable level of accuracy, excellence, and ethics in online media, especially when the subject at hand is an identifiable living person.

My secondary objective is to examine the efficacy of the process and the quality of the product achieved by any given policy, culture, or organizational architecture.

My tertiary objective is to identify and propose functional improvements to systems that are demonstrably falling short of best practices.

Status

My status at the English Misplaced Pages is currently in an unsettled state. More details can be found on my talk page. At the present time, I am only editing on the English Misplaced Pages within my own userspace.

Request for Review

I have asked responsible members of the English Misplaced Pages Community to review the circumstances under which I was indefinitely blocked on 9/11 of last year, in the wake of a questionable RfC filed by the editors of the WikiProject on Intelligent Design. (Note: I have not requested that the block be lifted for the purpose of editing mainspace articles in the English Misplaced Pages. Rather I have requested that the RfC and subsequent block(s) by members of the WikiProject on Intelligent Design be reviewed to determine if the proceedings and actions taken conformed to the normative practices of the English Misplaced Pages.) The requested review began on 15 May of this year at WP:AN/Moulton and is ongoing.
