C-FEST was organized last year prior to the 1996 CCCC in Milwaukee to
discuss issues related to conference presentation formats, rhetorical
delivery, and how technology is changing the way our conferences are
organized, and delivered (among other key topics). Tuesday's meeting 
will focus on Distance Education as 'delivery' of research, teaching, 
and contributions to our fields....on DE as 'service' to our respective 
institutions and departments...and on DE as the hot new market that 
has budget-weary administrators scrambling for a share of the pie.
Bring your questions, your local experiences, your advice, your 
strategies.
And...bring others interested in distance education from your campus.
What a novel idea...an online distance education meeting! (see below
for instructions for logging on that you will want to forward to your
attending guests) 
  
Our meetings are informal and productive. In the C-FEST Forum at Lingua
MOO participants may post ideas and suggestions to the C-FEST ideas
board, obtain instructions for subscribing to the C-FEST email
discussion list, and for how to contribute to the hypertext created and
maintained by Matthew Levy for the special CCCC ADH event.  We invite 
everyone to join in these discussion this spring as we approach the
conference, and as we host post-conference meetings to continue the
discussions generated while in Phoenix.  Those who are unable to attend
CCCC are especially invited to attend these online sessions to add their
voices to these important discussions. As always, these meetings are
recorded and the transcripts available on the Lingua MOO Archive and
Resource page, or by email (see instructions in the C-FEST Forum at
Lingua).
