fun at 4c's

Well, finally back from 4C's and all that jazz (literally). I have to admit, I think this is probably my favorite experience at 4C's. New Orleans is an awesome place, and I'm sad that I didn't visit it more when I was actually living in Louisiana. Guess I know now what all the fuss was about.

Open Source Resolution approved by CCCC

in cccc, open source

I'm back from CCCC, and I am happy to announce that the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) voted to approve a formal resolution regarding open source software usage in education. While the formal resolution has not been posted yet at the CCCC website (check back here later), the original draft which was submitted to CCCC can be viewed online.

It is important to be clear that this resolution is not a mandate requiring open source software usage. Rather, it states that open source software should be considered by CCCC in any software acquisition and that CCCC recommends that other educational institutions and organizations do the same.
