A couple of days ago I resolved–silently–to postpone blogging until the end
\nof qualifying exams (Dec. 21). Consider this entry a hiatus from my
\npostponement. I’ve been condensing notes for the last two days, paring 24k words
\ndown to 8k, the amount I can smunch decently onto four sides of 8.5"x11" paper
\nwith a seven point font. I could drop to a 6 pt. font, but I figure
\nthere’s no real need for more than the equivalent of twenty-four pages of notes
\nwhen the answers I’m trying to write will each be 10-12 pages long. If<\/i> all
\ngoes as planned, that is. Twelve pages spread across three hours:
\nthree…1…2…seconds…1…2…per…1…2… word. I probably shouldn’t
\nwrite<\/i> the beats per word on the actual exam, should I? For today my notes
\nseem adequate.<\/p>\n

Where was I? I really only wanted to return a gratitude link to "New
\nMedia and New Literacies: Perspectives on Change<\/a>," Carol Holder’s New
\nHorizons<\/i> review in the latest Educause<\/i>. The brief article opens with
\nthe following question: "What’s it going to take to see new media, multimodal
\nliteracies, and curriculum and instructional change at colleges and
\nuniversities?":<\/p>\n

Fortunately, faculty who teach writing and are writing specialists, who
\n help students become "literate," are in a discipline that has a long tradition
\n of focusing research on curriculum, instruction, and the processes that lead
\n to the development of literacy. Composition, rhetoric, and writing teachers
\n were among the earliest adopters of computer- and Internet-based technologies
\n in instruction, sharing results of experimental programs at conferences and in
\n professional journals. (para. 5)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This definitely strikes a Concord<\/i> given that I’ve been revisiting the
\nC&W histories lately, polishing notes about Lisa Gerrard and Hugh Burns just
\nyesterday. Generally, Holder has written an upbeat piece on change and
\ndiffusion, which also suggests some of the ways digital writing practices might
\nproductively alter the engrained patterns of conversations across disciplines.
\nPlus, EWM gets an approving nod in the "New Wine" section. Cheers to that. <\/p>\n

And now back to postponement, back to juicing the grapemash that is my brains
\nsix days from sitting the exams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
