Dr. Carr is the coach of the Fitchburg State University Advertising Team, which competes annually in the National Student Advertising Competition.
He is studying the discourse between human, technology and the environment with an eye to better understanding technological determinism and its long-term implications. His inductive approach to theorizing from critical readings of communication practices translates into the cross-pollination of theory and production in his courses, which span communication theory, technical communication and professional writing.
