Hi, everyone! I would like to encourage you to join us on the McGraw-Hill<BR>
Teaching Basic Writing blog for discussions about basic writing and this<BR>
year's CCCCs!!! Please go to <BR>

There you will find a discussion being led by Billie Hara and Joanna Howard.<BR>
Billie is a Ph.D. candidate from the University of Texas, Arlington and an<BR>
Instructor of English at Texas Christian University . She teaches the<BR>
University stretch course (for underprepared writers) as well as other<BR>
first-year and second-year writing courses at TCU. She is currently<BR>
completing her dissertation on institutional responsibilities to<BR>
underprepared student athletes at NCAA-ranked Division I-A institutions.<BR>
Billie has a wide range of academic interests that include reflexive<BR>
photography in the classroom, documentary film, community engagement, and<BR>
pedagogy. Billie maintains two blogs, a general blog<BR>
(<A HREF="http://partsnpieces.typepad.com">http://partsnpieces.typepad.com</A>) and a photography blog<BR>
(<A HREF="http://partsnpieces.typepad.com/project365">http://partsnpieces.typepad.com/project365</A>). Joanna Howard teaches Basic<BR>
Writing, FYC, Literature and Poetry at the Rockville campus of Montgomery<BR>
College in Montgomery County, Maryland. An avid blogger, she was one of the<BR>
founders of Community College English (<A HREF="http://cce.typepad.com/cce/">http://cce.typepad.com/cce/</A>), now run<BR>
by Holly Pappas of Bristol Community College in Massachusetts. Joanna feels<BR>
fortunate to have given her first presentation, "Using Blogging for<BR>
Professional Development," at the C's with<BR>
the late John Lovas and Dale Larsen. Currently, she is working on her<BR>
Moodle-based text for Basic Writing as well as a poetry cycle about Irish<BR>
ancestry. And, she blogs at 2 Board Alley: the Space for First Draft<BR>
Writing( <A HREF="http://giovannamaria.typepad.com">http://giovannamaria.typepad.com</A>).<BR>

Please do join us, if you can, and encourage your interested students and<BR>
colleagues to do so as well!!!! Best wishes, Laura<BR>
