Dr. Elif Guler has recently co-edited (with Beth Hewett and Kevin DePew) Foundational Practices in Online Writing Instruction, published by Parlor Press and The WAC Clearinghouse on February 21, 2015. The book addresses the questions and decisions that administrators and instructors most need to consider when developing online writing programs and courses. The editors hope that the guidance provided in this collection will encourage readers to join a conversation about designing OWI practices, contributing to the scholarship about OWI, and reshaping OWI theory.
Dr. Guler previously taught hybrid writing courses (which combined online and face-to-face instruction) at Old Dominion University. She co-authored an article on the use of weblogs for assessment in the writing classroom and has recently participated in a panel entitled, “When Effective Practices (in Online Writing Instruction) Become Risky Business,” at the 2015 Conference on College Composition and Communication held in Tampa, FL, March 18-21, 2015.
