Teaching Carnival and Tar Heel Tavern – call for submissions

I really need to start using one of those online calendars, like Google calendar or something….I have, again, signed up to host two carnivals on the same day! This probably means that both will have to be done the “regular” way without too much creativity. Ah, well!
So, next Sunday, October 1st, I will be hosting the 13th edition of the Teaching Carnival, the blog carnival devoted to Higher Ed, teaching at the college level, and the life in Academia. So, if you are either giving or receiving instruction of any kind in college or beyond, and have a story to tell, let me know by Saturday, September 30th, by 5pm Eastern time. You can tag your posts with Technorati or Delicious tags (see below how I did it), but you know that those things are far from perfect – half the posts do not show up and half of the posts that do show up as new are actually several months old. So, to make sure that I get your entries (and yes, multiples entries are welcome), please e-mail the permalinks to me at: Coturnix AT gmail DOT com. Put “Teaching Carnival” in the title of your message. The carnival will appear in the late morning at the latest.
Also on October 1st, next Sunday, I will be hosting the 84th edition of The Tar Heel Tavern, blog carnival of North Carolina blogging. If you are from NC, or currently in NC, or recently wrote something about NC, send me the permalinks by Saturday at midnight Eastern time at: Coturnix1 AT aol DOT com. Put “TTHT” in the title of your message. The carnival will appear in the late afternoon.
Also, for each of the two carnivals, I’d appreciate it if you spread the word around so new participants get attracted to these carnivals.

Blog Carnivals And The Future Of Journalism

Blog Carnivals And The Future Of JournalismThis June 01, 2005 post from Science And Politics has been reposted (with mild edits) at several different places by me and others, including on June 01, 2005 on Idea Consultants and on June 10, 2005 on DailyKos. This post, in some way, turned me into some kind of carnival “guru”….

Still, since the tagging technology is unreliable at best, you can only be guaranteed the inclusion of your entries (and yes, multiple entries are welcome) if you e-mail them to me at: Coturnix@gmail.com. Put “Teaching Carnival” in the title and inquire again if you do not get a Thank You note from me within 24 hours.
