Who I Am and What I'm Writing[edit | edit source]
My name is Kosta, and I live in Toronto (no big surprise there!). I am currently working on the following Wikibook:
Interests[edit | edit source]
My personal interests include:
- Literature (I'm currently into thrillers, but I keep coming back to works by Joyce and Atwood)
- English (I love etymology and theories of language acquisition)
- Education (especially technology-enhanced learning and critical pedagogy)
- History (mainly post-confederation Canadian history, but also general Western history)
- Philosophy (I've recently re-discovered my interest in Foucault, hence the Wikibook)
My applied interests include:
- Teaching English to college-level ESL learners
- Using Web 2.0 tools such as discussion boards, wikis, blogs, and podcasts, both in my own teaching and in my training of colleagues
- Developing resources (handouts, "user guides," online demos, etc.)
