Tertiary SIG Co-ordinator: Moyra Sweetnam Evans email
For Tertiary SIG members to keep in touch and up-to-date with what is happening in the sector, we have an email discussion list where issues of interest to the SIG are raised, discussed and debated. The list is hosted by the University of Otago and run by Moyra Sweetnam Evans, a staff member at Otago. More information on the list is available at:
http://lists.otago.ac.nz/listinfo/tesol-tertiary-interest-group
You will not be inundated with emails and you do not have to engage in any on-line activity or chats. You can set how often you want to receive emails from the list. For example, you can receive an email every time someone sends an email to the list (the listserver then forwards this on automatically to all subscribers), or you can opt to receive digests weekly or monthly. The list activity depends entirely on the SIG members. If no-one sends an email to the list (for all to read and respond to if they choose to do so), then nothing happens.
To subscribe to the list, fill in the relevant information on this website or send an email to the list owner, Moyra Sweetnam Evans at
