The Complete Thought's New Purpose

If you've been following us (which is unlikely because we have had very little content so far), you will know that we explained that our purpose for creating a blog, like The Complete Thought, was to provide an outlet for students to share their work with the world.

We still hope that this can be a purpose for this blog; however, until we can garner more interest in The Complete Thought and can work out some of the issues related to student privacy related to posting papers online, we will use this blog as a way for tutors and students to discuss tutoring techniques and engage in dialogue about writing center ideas and knowledge.

Let us know what you think. How can The Complete Thought make learning more engaging for tutors and students?

Welcome to The Complete Thought

This is the Communications Lab's new blog The Complete Thought.  We are excited to be stepping into the information age with blogs, video tutoring and Facebook.  The Complete Thought, aside from being a portal to communicate with the Communicatons Lab, will also be a place to read the work of students' and members of the OCCC community who have created more that just writing worthy of a passing grade, but writing that strives to be considered art or literature.  The Complete Thought provides a place for students to showcase their work, both in and out of the classroom.  We welcome you to join us as we achieve the ultimate goal of any writing endeavor, to add to the public discourse through dialogue and the exchange of new ideas.  All that it takes is one sentence because, after all, what is a sentence other than "a complete thought."
