Channel-Talk: A Workshop Email Discussion


To provide a communication network, we have created Channel-Talk. Channel-Talk is an email-based discussion (a moderated listserv) for the Assessment Workshops. By signing-up for Channel-Talk, you will receive in your email all Workshop-related messages. You can also email your comments to Channel-Talk, and your comments will be sent (upon the approval of the moderator) to all the other participants who have signed up for Channel-Talk.*

Workshop-related announcements, news, reminders, and updates will be posted to this email list, in addition to all comments and discussions. We invite and encourage you to use this discussion forum as a means of continuing the conversations about assessment-related issues beyond the weekly broadcasts. Specific post-workshop discussion topics will be posted by the Content Guides and the Channel staff each week.

You will automatically be added to Channel-Talk upon registration by checking the Sign Me Up box on your registration form. If you did not sign up on the form and would like to be added to the email discussion list, please follow the instructions below. Directions for removing your name from the list are also included.

* For those who do not have access to email, the Channel will offers a Web-based discussion on the Channel home page. Look for it in the coming weeks.
