Dear BWe Editorial Board:

On behalf of Barbara Gleason, I put forward the following proposal for a
Special Issue of BWe on the topic ?multimodal literacies: learning, 
access,
and support among students, instructors, and institutions.?

Since it ties in so beautifully with the CBW workshop theme, we?d love 
to
get an approval so Barbara can prepare a CFP to distribute at the CBW 
2010
workshop and throughout CCCC.

We?ve not done a special issue before, so we have no procedure for 
approval.
I?d like to suggest that we go ahead as it sounds like a marvelous idea 
to
us here at A&M-Commerce.

If you can send us your thoughts before March 5th, 2010, that?d be 
great. If
we hear no objections before that date, we?d like to give Barbara the
go-ahead so she can begin developing the CFP and conversations at her
institution.

--From Barbara Gleason--

I would like to take on the responsibility of editing a special topics 
issue
of BWe on this topic: "multimodal literacies: learning, access and 
support
among students, instructors and institutions."? This issue could spin 
out of
the CBW workshop in 2010.? CBW? members could contribute ideas and also
their own manuscripts -- if they want to. The special topics call for 
papers
could be discussed at the CBW EB meeting and announced at the CBW SIG, 
which
I plan to attend.? This topic (as stated above) is? a rough draft of 
how the
topic might eventually be articulated. I would be more than happy to 
flesh?
out and form? ideas in collaboration with you and Shannon. The really 
good
news is that I could recruit current graduate students to assist with 
the
editorial process. They would learn a lot and BWe would benefit from 
their
labor. As you know,? I served as the managing editor of The Writing
Instructor as USC for 2 years. I have lots of experience? issuing a 
call for
papers for a special topics issue, manuscript review and selection, and
communicating with authors about suggested revisions. I would be able to
teach students about these practices and I'd love to work out a plan 
where
you could mentor one or more of our L&L grad students as an "editorial
assistant"? either on this or a future BWe issue.

It sounds like a very good plan to me.
