Project write-ups

By November 7, please post a write-up of your semester project (so far) so that we can organize peer review. At this point, you should have at least a draft ready for conference presentation--7-10 pages, formal enough for that purpose, etc. Whatever state your project is in, the write-up should report on it as if you were presenting a paper at CCCC, WPA, NCTE, TESOL, or some other big conference. Thanks!

What do you think of this?

This article describes a new system developed by IBM. It purports to analyze your personal traits by examining your writing. There's a link in the article to the IBM site where you can try this out for yourself. You might be surprised at how low I scored on being "agreeable." ;-)
