Jeff and colleagues from the "Web Camp"...Congratulations on the follow-up
work that you are carrying out through your Spiders site.
Since NIFL/LINCS is helping fund this work, I thought it was a good
opportunity to let people know that the LINCS project is more than the web
site(s), databases, and the discussion lists (as valuable as these resources
are).
Every year a great deal of technology training goes on around the country
through NIFL's LINCS Regional Technology Centers ("LINCS Hubs"). In
addition, some of the Centers provide funding for on-line materials
development. If you would like to learn more about these opportunities in
your region of the country, you can reach the Centers through the LINCS Home
Page (www.nifl.gov/lincs) or contact Jaleh Behroozi and Wil Hawk here at the
NIFL.

Subject: [NIFL-TECHNOLOGY:1387] Spiders at Work Web Camp Site
NIFL-Technology Colleagues,
A few months ago David Rosen posted some messages here describing our
"Web Camp" project, which was a Web development training/support
program for adult literacy/ESOL educators in the Northeastern and
mid-Atlantic states who were also curriculum materials writers. This
training took place in Brattleboro, Vermont, July 30 - August 4.
What I wanted to announce today is that the official "Spiders at
Work" Web site is now up online. This Web site is designed to be a
connecting point for our training participants, and also as a way to
provide the literacy community and the general public on our progress.
(These folks are now developing final prototypes of their projects.)
<http://hub1.worlded.org/spiders/>
The Web Camp has been a partnership between the Literacy Assistance
Center of New York City, the New England Literacy Resource Center at
World Education, Boston's Adult Literacy Resource Institute, and
Vermont Adult Learning, and others. It's really been a great example,
I think, of true multi-state collaboration among several agencies --
and with practitioners at the core.
On behalf of the project sponsors,
Jeff
