[CBW_Exec] CCCC/CBW Fellowship 2009

[GlsnBarb@aol.com]

Dear Shannon and Sonya, 
Thank you for putting this fellowship announcement together and also for 
sharing it with us. The graphics and layout look professional and the information 
provided is clear and straightforward. I think CBW listserv is a great place 
to place the add and I'm sure it'll appear on the CBW web page. Will the 
announcement also appear on some additional listservs and web pages? 

The Text: 
It's my eyes and age, I'm sure, but there may be other readers who experience 
something similar: I find the   main text a bit hard to read due to font size 
and brightness: might the text be larger or bolder? 

Who May Apply: 
I have a question about who qualifies for this award: Does an applicant have 
to be currently teaching a "basic writing class" in a college? Or might others 
who are teaching nontraditional students introductory writing classes also 
qualify? For example: individuals who teach composition in a college that no 
longer offers basic writing? Or teachers of writing in programs for returning 
adults? Or teachers of writing in ESL programs? 

Disseminating Information:
I read Susan's comment on this part of the proposal requirement. My sense of 
things this past year (as a reader of the fellowship proposals) was that the 
plan to disseminate information was a key part of the proposal. Let's keeep 
that point clear if wording is changed. In fact, we might want to add a short 
list of criteria for proposal evaluations (e.g., a well-defined plan for sharing 
ideas with colleagues is one criterion for evaluation).

Warmly, Barbara
