Ed-Tech list members,
Gina Maranto, Acting Director of English Composition, is presenting a Lunch and Learn session on how she uses a Wiki to enhance student learning in her classes. Anyone who is interest in experiencing a Wiki and learning how it can be used by students in a course, will find this interesting. If you have an intensive writing ("W") class, be sure to attend. If you want to have your students interact with each others' writing, this is a chance to learn how Gina is doing it.
