grammartalk

CESL has a weblog, grammartalk, whose purpose is the discussion of grammar issues. Interested? It's intended for people who are studying TOEFL, who are stuck on certain issues, or who just want to know why things are the way they are. If that's you, come visit! It may take a while to get your answer, but you will. You can read about grammar issues, at your leisure...

Know any html? I've been getting bogged down in producing CESL Today, which is the student newsletter, and I strongly feel that since it's the students' production, the students' journal, the students' record of life here at CESL, students should be able to put it together themselves.

Now putting html together is a laborious task, I'll admit. It isn't easy. But when you're done, you'll have something to show people. Interested? contact me...

Privacy

Although it's been said before, it never hurts to say it again!

CESL teachers will ask you to contribute to the class weblogs (this contributes to CESL Today.
CESL teachers will ask you to have your own weblog and have it connected from the class page.
CESL wants full and rich weblogs that show what we do and have good English on them.
CESL teachers will want you to sign your work and be proud of it.
CESL Today will publish your work and may use your full name unless you tell us not to.

BUT

You do not have to have your full name on everything, or anything.
You do not have to allow your picture to be published.
You may tell us not to use your full name or even not to use a correct name.
You do not always have to have your portfolio visible to the whole world including GOOGLE.
You can ask us not to use your full name or picture.
You can "DELETE" your weblog after the term.

We understand that people have old boyfriends/girlfriends
or other reasons to "stay out of Google..."

We want to respect your privacy.
Please LET US KNOW if we need to do this!

Thank you for contributing to CESL Today!
