  • In many ways, this book affirms what seems intuitive, and the cross-cutting themes that surface are not necessarily new. For example, “English Language Development needs to be explicit” seems self-evident and has been discussed in other sources. Where the value of the book lies is in its communication of how much we do in fact know.

    Death to high school EnglishMy college students don't understand commas, far less how to write an essay. Is it time to rethink how we teach?

    Rewordify takes a complex passage and rephrases it in simpler terms. Students can adjust Rewordify's settings to match their needs. For example, students can add words to a "skip list" and those words will not be changed when they appear in a passage. Students can also use Rewordify to simply highlight difficult words instead of having them replaced.

    Good foundation for why two spaces after a period is wrong. Supported by historical evidence and common sense.
  • Beth Panitz on 15 Jan 11
     
    Actually the new 6th Edition of APA Manual now says you MUST put 2 spaces after a period when writing for publication. Go figure.

    This site looks amazing and a clever way of using the power of crowd sourcing to translate the web. Translate text into another language to learn Spanish, German, French, Italian and Chinese. The text is levelled to your ability. http://ictmagic.wikispaces.com/Languages%2C+Culture+%26+International+Projects

    I have been using Duolingo since November and is it fantastic. Not only is it free, but the system works. I am studying German and Spanish and I am amazed at not only how much I have learned, but how much I have retained.
