Computers and Writing 2000 Online sessions will take place on the MOO Connections, except where the point of the presentation involves visiting another online forum.

For an idea of what these sessions might be like, see the CW99 Online session logs.

So that even those with no experience using a MOO may present at Computers and Writing 2000 Online, we offer these resources:

  • Connections's home page offers tutorials for new MOOers

  • We will offer practice sessions for presenters during the months before the CW2K Online conference begins.

  • Each presenter or group of presenters will be assigned a volunteer MOO helper. Your helper will be someone who is experienced with using a MOO for group discussions and presentations and will be able to help you learn to use a MOO, plan your session, and attend your session in order to take care of attendees who need MOO assistance.

  • For encouragement, take a look at the log from Mary Ellen Nourse's CW99 Online presentation. Dr. Nourse was a brand new MOO user; she was CW99 Online's very first presenter, and the discussion she led was one of the highlights of the conference--attendees talked about it for a long time afterward!
HOME Computers and Writing 2000 Online is a companion conference to Computers and Writing 2000, to be held May 25-28, 2000, in Fort Worth, Texas.
