Ammerlaan, Meijhorst 90-12, 6537 KH Nijmegen, the Netherlands Direct to World Wide Writing , 2002 Winner European Award from the European Commission as 'Most Innovative Foreign Language Project'. Increasingly universities are resorting to Oxford/Cambridge methods of learning through writing. This implies that writing skills are becoming more important in the assessment of competences than before when oral defence and presentation skills could be used. Some background information is listed on Paul Peter's of the Hogeschool Arnhem and Nijmegen . As part of a joint operation, the Universities in Gelder;land have begun the programing of WorldWideWriting.com , an award winning tool to assist students at all tertiary levels in communicating and studying in Spanish, Italian, French, German, Dutch and English. To avoid duplication, and to maximally use existing OnLineWriting OWL labs, we have conducted several surveys on the Web. The results for English are listed below. This homepage lists results of a preliminary search for two tools: - Guidance in the art of writing, prefarably teacher-independent, time-independent and with preference involving peers.

The curriculum highlights the achievements of heroes like Thomas Jefferson, Martin Luther King, Jr., Eleanor Roosevelt, Cesar Chavez, and describes how each of their lives exemplified one heroic quality - such as courage, determination, self reliance, problem solving or self giving. In the discussion questions and follow-up activities students are invited to recognize that quality in themselves or in someone else close to them, and to use that quality in their lives to become better citizens of their school or community.

Go to the Marshall Homepage and look through News and Events for information on the Preservation Hall Jazz Band Concert that will be here on campus this Friday. How much does it cost? What time does it start? What kind of music do they play? Keep track of your answers on paper because after you do the next activity you will send the answers to these questions in an e-mail message About six weeks ago Nikki found a great website about culture shock. It was put together completely by international students. Go to it at The English Language Center Look specifically at the description of websites. First, read "The Five Stages of Culture Shock" and then, on a piece of paper , write which stage of culture shock you think you are in right now. Secondly, go to the "Welcome to Our Counseling Room" page and take the quiz. You will have to keep track on your paper of your answers to each question. According to their quiz, which stage do the "counselors" say that you are in? Write it down. Is it the same as you thought? Go to the advice section for your stage. Finally, write an e-mail to Nikki (thacker13@marshall.edu) or Mollie (mcowen@marshall.edu) and tell us the following: What stage you originally thought you were in What stage the counselors say you are in What is some advice that you can offer to someone else in the same stage (these may be your own ideas or ideas that the counselors gave you)

The Virtual Manager Remote Control Operating virtually can make your employees happier and your profits larger. But it comes with a special set of challenges by William R. Pape After a lecture I gave recently, an audience member stood up and told the story of a service company that had converted to a virtual operation. The managers were looking for a way to reduce office operating costs. They had installed a corporate E-mail system, bought laptop computers for their sales and service people, and closed down and subleased their offices. The results had been disastrous. Sales had dropped, turnover had skyrocketed, and frustrations at all levels of the organization were at an all-time high. The managers had been working from the common misconception that all you need to do to become a virtual company is to supply your employees with the right electronic tools, such as E-mail and remote databases. Nothing could be further from the truth. Virtual operations come with their own set of management challenges, and managers must be skillful enough to recognize those problems and solve them. Business is, at its heart, a highly personal activity, and to date we don't have electronic tools that can fully replace the richness of face-to-face contact. Whenever you substitute electronic tools for a physical work space, you lose the synergy that can come only from daily informal contact, and you risk alienating workers from one another and from the company's goals.

Internet Introduction The exponential increase in size and use of the Internet has meant that it will play an increasingly large role for all people, be it personally, professionally or incidentally. These changes will undoubtedly impinge upon the language teacher, as indeed they should. EFL teachers must realize the full potential and ramifications of the Internet as a classroom resource and as a learning environment in its own right. All teachers should continuously look for more efficient and improved means of teaching their subject, so how can the Internet be utilized by EFL teachers? The Internet is basically a series of interconnected computers that can all communicate with one another. It is, in effect, an enormous wide area network (WAN) that allows vast amounts of information to be stored and accessed easily and efficiently. The infrastructure necessary for this feat is essentially provided for free, at least for the time being. Most of the material on the Internet is in English which is pretty much the Lingua Franca online. Thus, the opportunities for the classroom are enormous, as could be the changes in the way English is taught. Some people may mistakenly think that the Internet is one enormous library, but it is much more than that. It offers a level of sophistication, ease of use, width and depth of content and an interactive ability previously unknown to us. Conversely, the Internet can be overwhelming, unreliable, chaotic, slow and in no logical order.
