Resources for Students, Teachers, and Scholars
Purdue University's Online Writing Lab (OWL) is an invaluable source of information for writers of all levels. Resources here include research strategies, overviews of common writing genres, guides to grammar and mechanics, easily navigable introductions to APA and MLA citation and formatting, useful writing exercises, a comprehensive look at plagiarism, support for ESL students and teachers, and much more.
Strunk's Style is an online, searchable version of the classic reference guide for style. Former Cornell professor of English William J. Strunk covers syntax, grammatical constructions, and stylistic concerns as well as general commentary on composition and a review of common errors, misused words, and misspellings.
The Chronicle for Higher Education, a paramount source of news about academic life. Analyses of trends in higher education, career opportunities, and provocative op-eds can all be found here as well.
The National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) spans kindergarten through undergraduate education, and provides reviews of course textbooks, samples of lesson plans, grant and career opportunities, and professional development. The NCTE also publishes a number of important peer-reviewed journals of English education, including College Composition and Communication.
For scholars researching community colleges, Columbia University's Community College Research Center is a great starting point that examines community colleges' multiobjective missions, including workforce education, developmental coursework, and transfer sequences.
The reader resources affiliated with the Heath Anthology of American Literature are an extensive collection of links and pages devoted to the study of American literature, with online texts by many canon and non-canon American authors.
