This chapter focuses specifically on how people as teachers and scholars engage with the design of online spaces. It proposes an ethical, relational, and material approach to the design of digital spaces. The chapter also proposes, using a land-based rhetorics as a way of understanding, how people experiences in digital spaces are shaped by people embodied interactions in the biosphere itself. It offers three criteria for rhetorically engaging with digital design. First, a land-based digital design rhetoric acknowledges how understanding comes from "active participation with the land". Second, a land-based digital design rhetoric acknowledges the relationships people have with particular elements in the biosphere. Third, a land-based digital design rhetoric acknowledges people sensate experience and memories of those experiences. In "Cultivating Land-Based Literacies and Rhetorics", Gabriela Raquel Rios explores the literacy practices of farm workers and, through sharing their stories and experiences, suggests moving beyond rhetorical frameworks that use ecology primarily as a metaphor for literacy.
