The name stands for \"Self Navigation Web-Based Literacy Learning System\". The students, the users of the system, have developed it in a seminar style course under the supervision of the authors. Through abundant discussions from diverse aspects, they decided to introduce an e-learning platform with an online textbook and online quiz for the study part, a forum and avatars for communication, and multiplayer quiz battles and rankings for competition among students. Students read the textbook and then do the quizzes to check if they have understood the text. To keep the motivation high, we introduced the quiz battles. When a student wins the battle, he earns 10 snowballs (points). Snowballs are also awarded for good participation in the forum, and for correct answers in individual quiz trials. Students appear as avatars and can choose a nickname in the system, so they do not have to show their actual identity. We believe that this will take away the hesitation to interact with one's peers in a second language. The avatars can be customized by shopping for clothes using the snowballs earned through the quiz-solving, quiz-battle, or communication in forum. Students not only designed or decided what features the platform should have, they also made the content by themselves. They wrote textbooks and made quizzes on the essential fields of engineering. Through close collaboration between teachers and students from several departments during the development of SNOWBALLS, there still is a constant flow of new ideas, improvements and feedback on both the educational content and the system.","PeriodicalId":404833,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"174 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121123937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They provide information about environmental impact/sustainability, nutrition, health, safety, the quality and suitability of consumer goods, and other domains. Design patterns are expanded guidelines that follow a problem-solution structure, provide more context than standard guidelines, and are supported when possible by citations to relevant research and professional literature. Pattern libraries are sets of coordinated patterns that strive to comprehensively support the design process in a particular domain. Pattern libraries have proven successful and are now used in such domains as urban planning, object-oriented programming, software user interface design, and web design. LabelPatterns.org is a newly launched website currently hosting over 75 design patterns that support the design of consumer-decision labels. It also offers other kinds of information about these labels and related messaging. The patterns and the website were begun as student projects in the Department of Human Centered Design & Engineering at the University of Washington, USA. It is now being managed and expanded by a volunteer project team.","PeriodicalId":404833,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"523 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116544785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our broadest goal is to incubate new ways of talking about and representing sustainability, such that individuals and institutions are motivated to act and cooperate. We do this by working in two areas: 1) in our inaugural year we sponsored two sustainability scholars who carried out ambitious research projects exploring some intersection of the Stanford campus and sustainability 2) we run a blog, SUSSing Sustainability @ Stanford that is an expansive forum for undergraduate writing, art, and projects pertaining to sustainability. This essay details the evolution of the SUSS program and describes a model for supporting undergraduates to reflect on, synthesize and communicate about sustainability-related issues. SUSS is sponsored by an undergraduate writing program; this is critical because many challenges of sustainability will be solved not only through science and policy, but also through writing, communication, and rhetoric. SUSS helps students develop rhetorical and communicative skills to become ambassadors and coalition builders for sustainability, on campus and beyond.","PeriodicalId":404833,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115849205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different assignments and methods are used to “infuse” our writing curriculum with sustainability principles. Building on the work of composition theorists and practitioners―including Derek Owen, Dobrin and Weisser, and Goggin and Waggoner — my UCSB Writing colleagues and I have modified the curriculum in engineering, business, and professional writing courses at the lower-division and upper-division levels. Our curriculum asks students to research, analyze, write, and reflect on the concepts and practices of sustainability. Often the combination of “service learning” with sustainability issues helps to provide situations that encourage students to author very practical documents — newsletters, design proposals, project proposals, business plans, and brochures. The paper provides evidence that — for students, faculty and staff, and external community “clients” — writing teaching and learning can contribute to improving our world by addressing sustainability issues.","PeriodicalId":404833,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Professional Communication Conference","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125008898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
