Teaching in the PWR Mobile Lab: Getting Started
Under Perpetual Revision
I admit it... I have "perpetual revision syndrome." In an effort to make the site more user-friendly and helpful, I tend to move things around a bit. If you followed a link that no longer works, try the search box, above, or browse the relevant categories and tags below.
Still can't find it? Please contact me and I'll either direct you to the right handout. Or, if it doesn't exist yet, I'd be happy to make one for you. Let me know what you'd like me to cover and whether you want it in step-by-step format or as a screencast.

Updated Wordpress Help
Some of my help pages on Using Custom Wordpress are outdated, thanks to recent updates.
If you come across a help page that seems outdated, try looking for help on the Wordpress.com Support pages
Those pages refer to the "lite" version of Wordpress, not the full version we're using, but many of the basics of creating blog posts apply to both.

Site Purpose
Digital environments have fundamentally changed the way people read and communicate. So why are we teaching students to write to audiences that won’t exist in the future, using mediums that are relics of the pre-digital world?
To communicate successfully in digital environments and with digital media, students need training in the core principles of digital rhetoric. The handouts on site are a step in the direction of offering that training.
