Teacher, Researcher, Scholar, Essayist: A Web Text with Some Assembly Required
Class Resources and Activities
- a Web site that details a 10 week MOO and wiki-based collaborative
writing project instituted in a junior composition class at Ohio
University. The site became known as the Green Monstrosity due to our
poor Web design and lack of color consciousness.
- Paul's syllabus for the course. It includes a daily syllabus with the
course readings and some of the timeline related to the project detailed
in the Green Monstrosity.
- John's class technoblog. Although it was Paul who used a blog like
this in his class during the study, John's is a better representation of
the opportunities such blogs offer. Blogger.com offers a free and easy
setting for your class blog. Especially, a great place for those newly
integrating a blog in their class.
- This document explains how to create a blog using blogger.com and
explains how I use them in class.
-This document explains how to create a free wiki using pbwiki.com. It
also provides a few helpful hints on how to work productively within a
wiki.
