List X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas Content-Type: text/plain; X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Status: O Content-Length: 2998 Lines: 61 Hello List: I've invited Mark Warschauer to join us on the list for a two week period, beginning Monday, February 5 and ending Friday, February 16. Some of you may have read Mark's book E-mail for English Teaching, published in 1995 by TESOL, when you were first grappling with how to use the web in instruction. Since then Mark has written several other books on the subject, including a revised edition of the above, retitled Internet for English Teaching, which is coming soon from TESOL. A brief bio follows with a link to his home page where you can read through his CV and many of his articles and conference papers. Please take a look through Mark's materials and let me know what format you would suggest for his visit. We can have an open-ended Q & A or a more focused discussion on one of his articles that we all agree to read, or, as we worked with John Fleishman last year, we can generate questions in advance for mark to respond to. Please think about this over the next week and post your thoughts to the list by January 19. Mark Warschauer is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Education at the University of California, Irvine. His research interests focus on the impact of new information technologies on language, literacy, culture, and development. He has taught and conducted research at universities in Hawai'i, California, Russia, and the Czech Republic, and has also taught ESL and GED courses in adult programs in Oakland and San Francisco, California. >From March 1998 to January 2001, Mark was the director of educational technology on a large US-funded educational assistance project in Egypt. Mark is the founding editor of Language Learning & Technology journal, the author or editor of numerous works on language, literacy, and technology, and the manager of the Papyrus News email list. Further information on his publications and projects is available at his Website at http://www.lll.hawaii.edu/web/faculty/markw (soon to be migrated to a new URL at UC Irvine).
