Besides being a place to get together, a place to chat, etc., The DYC Palace will also allow you access to WIP's online sequence of workshops, as will this homepage. The online workshops are designed to move sequentially through the steps of turning an existing course into a WIP course. By accessing this information through The DYC Palace , you can do so in pairs, or in groups, and discuss the material as you go along. For instance, when you look at the example of model writing posted, you should feel encouraged to email your own example so that I can post that as well. Therefore, think of each workshop as a category which is only partially addressed at this point.
Real workshops require participation.
I am hoping that these ways of access will become ready ways for us to talk with one another, provide support, relay information, and so on. In addition to the workshop material, these links represent some of the resources available to you. The WIP program has passed curriculum and faculty council. It will thus be implemented for fall 1999 if, indeed, the administration supports it. And in real life, we continue to all have terribly differing and disparate schedules.
