Writing for Webheads is an ESL class that has met live on line each week since 1998. Considering that the class is given free by volunteer teachers, its long-standing viability suggests that participants are getting more out of it than they are putting in.
What incentives do teachers and students have to stay with the class for so long, and what benefits accrue to all concerned? This presentation takes you on a tour of the Webheads community in hopes of gaining insights to the answers to these questions.
Slide 1 | Who are the Webheads ? - a history and overview |
Slide 2 | Webheads main page - navigating our site through its portal |

Slide 5 | What do we do each week? - current components to a typical class session & chaos navigation |
