As I look forward to heading to Boston this afternoon, I’m thinking about all the ways people might use this space during the convention itself. For instance, is anyone considering posting slides (or a link to slides) so that session attendees can follow along? Might be helpful for accessibility if people can’t easily see projected materials.

Beta Testers on MLA Commons 13 years, 1 month agoI’m still finding my way around the MLA Commons website, but I’m already enjoying making new connections across disciplines, chatting with my fellow BETA testers, and reading all the new additions Kathleen is making.

That’s an interesting idea. I typically post my presentations on my site after I’ve given them, but making it available during the presentation could be useful.
That’s what I usually do, too. My slides aren’t particularly useful without some text to go along with them, but I know it’s unpleasant to be at the back of a room and unable to see what’s up on the screen.
