Dear Readers,
I think you will enjoy our last issue of The Learning Center Exchange for the
2006-2007 academic year. In it you will find inspiration, laughter, insight,
and wisdom, all the usual things you have come to expect from LCE.
• Wondering how the Darton College LSE Writer’s Workshop has been
doing lately? (see the April issue for the first installment of this story).`Find
out by reading Roseanna Almaee’s sequel piece, “The LSE Writer’s
Workshop: A Follow-up—Small Miracles.” (Can’t skip a story
with a tag line like that!)
• Cn u rd this? If not, you are not alone, but I bet your students can!
This month, Julianne Scibetta gives us a lesson in text messaging student-speak!
• Are your students earning all A’s? No? Maybe you would like to
use Dennis Congos’s latest reproducible handout to help your students
figure out why!
• Whiny students got you down? Roseanna Almaee’s “Language
as Change Agent” can help!
• End of the semester blues? Barb McLay and her humor column to the rescue!
• Been following the LRNSST-L listserve threads lately? Remember the day
you had 100 emails about “helicopter parenting?” Mona Pelkey writes
about her tendencies to hover and that maybe it isn’t all that bad.
Happy summer! See you in September!
Mona
