New Course, New Types of Entries

Welcome to my blog for ENGL 895, Teaching Writing from a Distance. In this course I hope to develop a brief workshop on the use of wikis and blogs in higher learning with the purpose of passing this information onto higher ed instructors.

I’ve been asked by my employers to create a workshop on the Use of Blogs and Wikis to present to our new faculty at the end of the summer, I thought I’d take advantage of this course to look into theoretical and practical issues and considerations of blogs and wikis in higher education.

Over the course of the next few weeks I will be posting reviews of articles that examine issues of digital tools in higher ed and teaching the teacher.

I guess it’s appropriate that I’ll be presenting some of my findings via blog entries.

Hope you find something useful.
