This course course will have three parts: an online discussion about readings and assignments designed to “frame” the course; a “hands on the keyboards” workshop in Traverse City about using technology for the teaching and learning of writing, and it is designed for Composition, English, and Language Arts teachers K-College; and a post-class assignment where students present an application of technology with their own teaching. <br /><br />We will have extensive activities designed to learn how to use a variety of internet applications in present and future teaching-- email, web sites, blogs, wikis, bookmarking sites, image sharing sites, podcasing, online video, and so forth. Students will build their own basic web sites and complete a post-class exercise on using technology in their teaching. No previous experience with the technologies covered in this class will be necessary.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">A lot more information will be coming, of course! </span> But for the time-being, be sure to check out <a href="http://techforteach.wikispaces.com/">the course wiki</a>, which includes a tentative syllabus and a tentative class calendar.
