My book is now available
I'm excited to announce that my book, Teaching Writing Online: How and Why (NCTE), is now available. Check it out at http://www1.ncte.org/store/books/comp/130888.htm or
This blog describes my efforts to develop and teach online writing courses at Drexel University, an endeavor that began in 2004. My goal is to provide useful information about teaching writing—particularly first-year writing—in online or in hybrid settings and to encourage conversations about such teaching. I started this blog mainly to experiment with this technology, but I also hope that my successes and failures will help others to create, teach, and assess online writing courses.
