I'm excited for the TYCA-PNW conference. I wasn't able to make it today (well, I guess now technically yesterday), but I am excited for Saturday. Sara Jameson and I (both from Oregon State) are giving a presentation in the morning titled "A Compass for the Composition Classroom: Conversing and Consuming in Cyberspace Communities." I thought I'd offer the handouts we'll give regarding blogs here on the TYCA blog via some links to PDF files. Please feel free to download them.

A list of a variety of blogs in education, in rhetoric and writing, and others (pdf)
Some options for starting your own classroom blog and other Read/Write websites (pdf)

great resource(s)!
Michael,
I wish I could be there for your presentation. I'm impressed by the resources, particularly the bibliography of resources. Of course, it's always nice to see my work included among the examples. I hope you'll write up your presentation and enocurage folks to write up their experience there as well. What do you think about turning your resources into book pages so folks can keep adding to what you've begun, sorta in a wiki-way?

Glad to hear it went well. It's great to see all the blog entries folks put up. I'll get in touch via email about putting up the pages.
