During the last six or so years I have created a number of 'how-to' documents and presentations for a variety of web based and related technologies. They are available from the various workshop web pages however I thought it might prove helpful to link to all the documents from a single page. Some of my workshop participants have referred to these documents as 'cheat sheets'

I did use survey monkey for a faculty survey! I then printed it out so I wouldn't be overloading you all with links---and because it doesn't really fit on our google site---since it's for faculty. I'll go ahead and send you the monkey link. The student survey I'm going to have the tutors help me create---and then use survey monkey. Thanks for the comments! What a great idea to use this to comment---makes me think of some many possibilities.

why teach digital writing? > how technology changes writing practices - 1 views
-
Many writing technologies have streamlined the writing process (the typewriter is one example), but only a few writing technologies have had truly dramatic social impact. The printing press is one; the networked computer is another. It is the networked computer, the spaces to which networked computers provide access, and the public ways in which individuals are writing that are together changing the cultural landscape. These elements, taken together, are truly revolutionary.

When we use the term “digital writing,” we refer to a changed writing environment—that is, to writing produced on the computer and distributed via the Internet and World Wide Web. We are not talking about the computer as a stand-alone machine for writing; although that particular technological development has indeed changed the writing process, the computer itself as a stand-alone machine is not revolutionary in the sense we mean. Rather, the dramatic change is the networked computer connected to the Internet and the World Wide Web. Connectivity allows writers to access and participate more seamlessly and instantaneously within web spaces and to distribute writing to large and widely dispersed audiences.

The first thing she found is that young people today write far more than any generation before them. That's because so much socializing takes place online, and it almost always involves text.

So... right... texts and Texts are so mixed up in our lives now in a way that is more social than writing has ever been before. Like I wrote texts, facebook statues, emails so much more often than we wrote postcards and letters and passed notes before.

I can't think of a Facebook status report right now. Will you write one for me and I'll plagiarize it?

I think you just wrote it. Copy and paste

An age of illiteracy is at hand, right?

ncreasingly, classes and programs in writing require that students compose digitally. Such writing occurs both in conventional “face-to-face” classrooms and in classes and programs that are delivered at a distance. The expression composing digitally” can refer to a myriad of practices. In its simplest form, such writing can refer to a “mixed media” writing practice, the kind that occurs when students compose at a computer screen, using a word processor, so that they can submit the writing in print (Moran). Such writing may not utilize the formatting conventions such as italics and bold facing available on a word processor; alternatively, such writing often includes sophisticated formatting as well as hypertextual links. Digital composing can take many other forms as well. For example, such composing can mean participating in an online discussion through a listserv or bulletin board (Huot and Takayoshi). It can refer to creating compositions in presentation software. It can refer to participatingin chat rooms or creating webpages. It can mean creating a digital portfolio with audio and video files as well as scanned print writings. Most recently, it can mean composing on a class weblog or wiki. And more generally, as composers use digital technology to create new genres, we can expect the variety of digital compositions to continue proliferating.
