[CBW_Exec] INNY 2010

[kbaca@nmsu.edu]

Greg, Sugie, and Peter, 

Thank you for your work on this, and thank you for your courage in not awarding
an INNY this year. I think it's important for the integrity of the award and of
CBW.  kb

> 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 Susan 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.
