The current survey is a streamlined versi
on of<br>an earlier one on CompPile. The new survey is available on Survey Monkey and<br>contains only 10 questions. You can access the survey at<br>http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=xHqm3g7tYx7ildvliwJMMg_3d_3d.<br><br><br><br>Please note that on the last page of the survey, following question 10,<br>there is a form asking whether you would be available to answer any<br>follow-up questions via e-mail or phone. Please be sure to click through to<br>this last page if you would like to be involved in this ongoing research.<br><br><br><br>The database will provide national information for teachers, researchers,<br>and program administrators about the history, structures, and practices of<br>basic writing in the U.S. Its effectiveness, however, depends on how many<br>surveys are completed.<br><br>We urge you to complete the survey to the best of your ability for the basic<br>writing program or courses at your institution by January 15, 2010. You or<br>a colleague can always u
pdate the information. We will be reporting on<br>preliminary surve
y results at the CBW Workshop on Wednesday, March 17, 2010,<br>at CCCC in Louisville. Please also encourage colleagues at other<br>institutions to participate in this national project.<br><br><br><br>Thank you.<br><br><br><br>Deborah Mutnick<br><br>Director of Writing & Professor of English<br><br>Long Island University, Brooklyn Campus<br><br><br><br>Rebecca Mlynarczyk<br><br>Co-Editor *Journal of Basic Writing* & Professor of English<br><br>Kingsborough Community College & the Graduate Center, CUNY<br>-------------- next part --------------<br>An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<br>URL: http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/pipermail/cbw_exec/attachments/20091119/f1ba08ec/attachment-0001.htm<br><br>------------------------------<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>CBW_Exec mailing list<br>CBW_Exec@tamu-commerce.edu<br>http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/mailman/listinfo/cbw_exec<br><br><br>End of CBW_Exec Digest, Vol 21, Issue 1<br>*****************
