Dear Colleague:

Though we all bring our own unique styles and teaching methods to the classroom, we share a common goal--to prepare our students to be successful communicators.  Thankfully, we work within a department that encourages collaboration among faculty members.

That collaborative spirit fostered the creation of this website.  English Department Resources houses a collection of practical information, teaching tips, lesson plans, and writing samples.  Whether you are a first-year or veteran instructor, this resource should prove to be beneficial to you.

However, this site is ever evolving and hopefully will, for the foreseeable future, be a work in progress.  If you would like to share an activity or lesson that has worked well for you, please send it to me via email ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ), or put a copy in my box in the TLC (main campus).  Additionally, electronic html contributions are appreciated.

Thank you for sharing your great ideas with your peers; we can learn much from each other.

Lisa B. Martin
