Campbell’s teaching and research centers on the social shaping of technology, rhetoric of new media, and themes related to the intersection of media religion and culture, with a special interest in the internet and mobile phones. Her books include Exploring Religious Community Online: We are one in the network (Peter Lang, 2005) looking at how members of online religious communities connect their online and offline social-religious networks and When Religion Meets New Media (Routledge, 2010) investigating Jewish, Muslim & Christian communities’ historic perceptions and contemporary use of media technologies. Here current research looks at how bounded communities domesticate the internet in light of their social values or core beliefs and the relationship between online religious authority and established, offline institutions and hierarchies.
Dr. Campbell teaches COMM 330 Human Communication & Technology, COMM 340 Popular Culture and Communication, COMM 480 Religious Communication and COMM 665 Communictaion and Technology.
