NOTICE!

For some reason I can add sidebars, but not new posts. Please check back later. I have been working on a variety of things including switching my blog soon from this one, which was set up with my now-defunct West Wisconsin Telcom account. I hope to have my new blog through Gmail up soon. I will provide a link and announcement when I've got everything straight. 7/2/11

New class blogs



A wordle: see http://www.wordle.net to create your own

This quarter I’m teaching two classes at Globe University: Business Communication (http://ericacommunicates.blogspot.com/ ) and Business Writing (http://ericawritingclass.blogspot.com/ ). Check out the postings and student responses. This is a wonderful tool for teaching. It gives the class practice presenting themselves professionally in a public forum (as opposed to the discussion board feature). It also breaks the monotony of essays and reports . . . not to mention being much shorter, as one of my students pointed out with pleasure!

I think your blog page is very fun and full of great things to explore. I'm not so sure if I'm doing this right, but I'm giving it a try. I do not use gmail very often, however, I will now be using it every week.
