Dispatches from the Intertubes

We’re still looking for more Writing Program teachers to sit in on the technology committee. Our mandate is to investigate the various tools we have available to us here at UMass and how we can use them to better meet the pedagogical goals of the program. Our first item on this agenda will be to see how we can make SPARK work for Writing Program teachers.

If you’re interested in sitting on this committee, please email me — bhoule@english.umass.edu. No computer experience necessary. In fact, if you are unfamiliar with computers, but would like to gain some low-stakes exposure to the kinds of issues they raise and discuss them, please think about sitting on the committee.
