    "The National Center for Supported eText (NCSeT) at the University of Oregon is a federally funded research center investigating the impact of "supported electronic text" (or supported etext) on students' comprehension of content area material. Supported etext is digital text that has been modified in ways that are designed to increase access and support comprehension. These modifications are categorized by the role they play in the reading process - leading to a typology of eleven types of etext supports (Anderson-Inman & Horney, 2007). The NCSeT Typology provides the conceptual framework for the research supported by NCSeT."

  • Abstract As we invite students to compose and collaborate in online spaces, wikis have emerged as a primary tool for writing. While wikis sometimes have a negative connotation in academic circles -- any discussion of Wikipedia will assuredly bring out a range of emotions in teachers and researchers -- the basic principles of wiki writing offers students many opportunities to draft, publish, and revise their work. Moreover, wikis provide opportunities for students to develop online communities, embed additional web-based media into their writing, and monitor their own work over time. This segment of our workshop will invite you to become a wiki writer, seeing the possibilities for yourself and allowing you to set up your own class wiki in the process.
