If you are trying to fund a trip to WRITING NEW MEDIA, here are some suggestions:

• Describe to your department chair the "teaching with technology" workshops you will do when you come back from Writing New Media -- if the department helps fund your trip.
• Ask your department chair to ask your dean to provide matching funds.
• Ask your grad school to match your department's and your dean's funds.
• Ask if your grad school provides scholarships for professional development or travel.
• Your local KÇ12 school district might provide funding if you agree to give a series of "teaching with technology" workshops when you return from Writing New Media.
