St. Martin's - "Planning for Hypertexts"
How do you feel about hypertext training for Richmond tutors? Do you think there is a need for this on our campus?
St. Martins - "Protocols and Process"
This essay really makes me wonder about the nature of the dialogue in these online tutoring sessions. I think it might be awkward if there were a one-sided balance for the tone of the conversation? If for example, the tutor didn't capitalise, spell words in their entirety or use shorthand expressions like "lol". However, they might do everything by the book and in so doing intimidate the writer a little because they are not used to online conversations being so formal. How could you regulate this kind of issue? Would you tell both tutors and writers up front how they should type/write/speak? Would you let the pair determine the tone for themselves?
