Dennis Oliver
 | Happy 2007!I'm Dennis Oliver and am posting from Phoenix, Arizona. For the past six years, I've taught ESL and developmental English at a community college. In the 20 years or so before that, I did a lot of things: taught pre-university students and did administrative work at a university IEP, taught secondary-school students in a now-defunct private boarding school, served as an editor and writer while I worked for and with a well-known ESL/EFL materials developer, and taught, did teacher training and curriculum development work, and served as a textbook editor for a chain of proprietary ESL/EFL schools. I'm really happy to be part of this group for at least three reasons: because I'm familiar with the work of our moderators and am impressed by it, because I'm eager to gain more insight into CMC through blogging, and because I have a feeling that all of us will learn a great deal from each other. I'm greatly looking forward to our time together! |
Nina Liakos
 | My name is Nina Liakos and I live in Maryland, outside of Washington DC. I am married (my husband is from Greece) and have one daughter, 14 years old. I have taught ESL at the University of Maryland's English institute since 1981. I took Becoming a Webhead in EVO 2007 and became very interested in blogging at that time. I have since used blogs in 2 classes and a summer program and I have several different blogs on different hosts (wordpress, blogger, multiply...) because I like experimenting with different types of blogs. Even though I am not exactly a beginner at blogging, I think that I can learn more from Carla and her team in this course! I am looking forward very much to working with all of you! |

Carla Raguseo
 | My name's Carla Raguseo. I'm an EFL teacher and Computer Lab coordinator at A.R.I.C.A.N.A., a Binational Center in Rosario, Argentina.I've been using blogs for different purposes with my classes for a year now, but I still need to enhance my skills especially regarding template personalization and the use of RSS. These are some of the blogs I've created for my classes:www.carla2006.learnerblogs.org, www.intensive6.edublogs.org, www.6thyear.edublogs.org. However, the most exciting possibility is to carry out online exchanges between groups of students in different countries. Have a look at the one we coordinated with Carla Arena between Adol. courses at Casa Thomas Jefferson - CTJ in Brazil and my school in Argentina: www.brazilargentina1.edublogs.org. One of my greatest challenges in 2006 was to create a website for the group of South American teachers with whom I traveled to Texas on a scholarship for EFL teachers. I've embedded a couple of blogs in the website to allow for asynchronous communication with the group and with the new groups of teachers that have traveled ever since. Please feel free to check it out:www.asi2006.com.ar and make any comments or suggestions. There's still a lot of room for improvement! I'd like to thank Gladys, Claudia, Carla, Erika and Silvana for this wonderful initiative.Look forward to learning and collaborating with you all! |
