Bjorn Akselsen’s teaching portfolio Bjorn has taught university level classes in typography, interactive design and information design at State University of New York (SUNY), Purchase, Southern Connecticut State University and Quinnipiac University.

Quinnipiac University

In this entry level web-design course, students used the design process to create a fully functional web site. The course expanded on the creative process by integrating real life subject matter and research interest.

Students made animations for desktop presentations, embedded in web pages and for non-linear digital video, showing both knowledge and understanding of 2D computer graphics and creativity.

Southern Connecticut State University introductory web project

This introductory web design course required students to design, construct, test and upload a personal web site using ”industry standard” tools such as Photoshop, ImageReady, DreamWeaver, and Illustrator.

For most students, this was their first exposure to on screen design and they worked exceptionally hard to gain knowledge to put together a small web site.
