If you use your class website a lot, you might wan to take a look at the Topoi page that Mark Marino has put together for the USC writing program (www.pageflakes.com/markcmarino) This page is full of interactive tools for pre-writing. The widgets are meant to be copied and used on your own site to help your students. Here is Marino's post discussing the Topoi page: http://writerresponsetheory.org/wordpress/2008/08/23/widget-based-education/
