RCWP Tech Workshops Begin

Red Cedar Writing Project - Summer 2006
Originally uploaded by hickstro.

This past week, we have had a number of RCWP technology workshops. On Tuesday, Paul and Bev were a part of a podcasting workshop and here they are transferring an audio recording that they made with an iPod into Audacity and preparing their file. Along with podcasting, teachers have been involved in sessions on zines, vodcasting, blogs, and a digital writing marathon. Thanks to all who have participated in this initial week and we look forward to seeing more of you later this summer.

Summer 2006 Digital Writing Marathon

For those of you who want to prime the writing pump, and explore writing in digital environments, I would encourage you to visit the RCWP wiki and check out the link to the Digital Writing Marathon page.

This will be the main source of information for the Digital Writing Marathon as it continues over the next few weeks. We already have a number of RCWPers blogging there way through the summer, and we hope that you, too, will join us.

We look forward to seeing you online soon and here on campus this Friday!
