Michael Day: Selected Webbed Publications

With Eric Crump and Rebecca Rickly, I have coauthored a chapter on using Internet Relay Chat, MOO, and other synchronous Internet environments for scholarship and collaboration. The chapter is called Creating a Virtual Academic Community: Scholarship and Community in Wide Area Multiple-User Synchronous Discussions and is in Computer Networking and Scholarly Communication in the Twenty-First-Century University, published in 1996 by SUNY Press, a volume in the SUNY series in Computer-Mediated Communication, Teresa M. Harrison and Timothy Stephen, editors

With Trent Batson, I have coauthored a chapter about Electronic Networks For Interaction (ENFI). in a three volume set called Computer Mediated Communication and the Online Classroom. available from Hampton Press

As an outgrowth of that project, with Susanmarie Harrington and Rebecca Rickly I am editing a specialized volume on Computer Mediated Communication for writing teachers called The Online Writing Classroom. It will be available from Hampton Press in 1999.

I currently have a book chapter "Online Research for Print and Electronic Publication" in a book called New Worlds, New Words: Exploring Pathways for Writing about and in Electronic Environments which is currently under review.

With Dickie Selfe, I put together a glossary of internet terms currently available in the Epiphany Project's Field Guide.

My entrance into fully webbed publication is marked by my work as coverweb coordinator of Kairos: A Journal for Teachers of Writing in Webbed Environments Issue 1.2 (Summer 1996). In this new form of publication, I worked with a group of authors and editors to present a web of essays and resources called "Pedagogies in VirtualSpaces: Writing Classes in the MOO."

As a sidebar to the Kairos coverweb, I have included "Fear and Loathing in Paradise: Making use of Dissensus, Disorientation, and Discouragement on the MOO," an adaptation of a talk I gave at "The Virtual Classroom: Writing Across the Internet" in Berkeley, California, March 16, 1996

In answer to what I see as a reluctance of humanities scholars to embrace Internet technology in a humanizing manner, I have written a piece called "Humanities and the Internet: Unlikely Bedfellows?". This is published in the Silver Anniversary Anthology: Celebrating 25 Years of the South Dakota Humanities Council edited by Thomas Gasque.

Writing in the Matrix: Students Tapping the Living Database on the Computer Network was published by NCTE Press in 1998 The Dialogic Classroom: Teachers Integrating Computer Technology, Pedagogy, and Research, Jeff Galin and Joan Latchaw, eds.
