Below is the information I received: The advertised deadline just passed, but we can receive manuscripts until the end of October and still get the journal out on time. The current address is InLand Dept. of English Northwest Nazarene College 623 Holly Street Nampa, ID 83686 Phone: (208) 467-8453 Fax: (208) 467-8469 e-mail: [log in to unmask] Thanks for your quick reply and offer of assistance. --Gaymon Date: Thu, 25 Sep 1997 16:32:39 -0400 From: EDWARD VAVRA <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Subject: ATEG -Reply Gaymon, Thank you for your response. I will be happy to post your call on ATEG's listserver and to publish it in our newsletter. That will alert all our members, including Martha Kolln, Connie Weaver, and Rei Noguchi. Before I do so, however, can you send this back to me with a deadline for the gammar issue and with an address for Inland? (The address I have may be old.) Thanks, Ed V. >>> "Gaymon Bennett" <[log in to unmask]> 09/24/97 04:39pm >>> Dear Ed-- I'm sorry to be so long rewponding to your letter and materials sent last February. I have be out of the country on sabbatical leave, and a slowly digging out of accumulated correspondence and deferred duties. Your information couldn't have arrived at a better time: InLand is devoting an entire issue to the teaching of grammar and other aspects of language. Because of the nature of this issue, I would be happy to promote ATEG free of charge (though it's true we do sell advertising and would be happy to advertise ATEG in subsequent issues at very good rates, if I do say so myself). We have, as you can tell by the call for copy broadened the consideration of "grammar" to related aspects of English language teaching. Still we haven't received many manuscripts. Could you help us by contacting a few colleagues who might contribute an article or by providing us with names of people we could contact? Our call for copy for the Fall-Winter number reads in part: To Grammar or Not to Grammar . . . Is teaching (or not teaching) grammar still an issue? Is it a semantic question? Do different groups mean something different by the term? Is it. . . a political issue? And in any event, what is to be done? In this issue we will asssume that the question is still not resolved and welcome articles on the questions of whether grammar, usage, and/or mechanics should be taught. Or what aspects of language should be taught. Or how language should be taught. We welcome submissions on innovative ways to teach language or integrate language study into literature or writing instruction. We'd like to learn about interesting language activities to substitute for tired old exercises. We'd like to learn about the place of language instruction in writing workshops and other collaborative activities. We'd like to know about your successes or instructive failures in language teaching. In short, the issue is wide open. I hope you can help out. Let me know what you want us include in the way of advertising. Looking forward to your response --Gaymon Bennett
