I teach English at Springfield High School. With the exception of one class, I deal exclusively with seniors all day--all upper-level, including two sections of Brit Lit and two sections of Advanced Placement English Lit/Comp. I'm also the school newspaper adviser and teach one section of a class called Newspaper Production, which is where we do some of the work involved in getting out a newspaper each month. Two issues of the newspaper are on the web (though they're from last year--various problems have interfered with timeliness thus far this year), and my Brit Lit students did a project on Elizabethan England that is posted on the SHS web site. So, although I'm pretty new to technology, I guess I'm not a total neophyte.
