Immersive assignments students correct US Richmond Writing

Immersive assignments students correct US Richmond Writing I am using a wiki this semester without a spell-checker and Im not the best proofreader on earth. In addition to that issue, I often forget to READ MY WORK ALOUD before I submit it.   Thus I find small errors cropping up. How do I keep myself honest and students engaged?   I give them extra credit on work if they spot an error in my own online posts and assignments. If I violate one of my own Pet Peeves, they get more credit still. One of my class mentors said the wiki (and the work in Second Life) provide a great example of immersive learning for students.   I suppose they have at least learned that all writers must take care and be mindful of an audiences watchful eyes.  Score so far: 3 errors by me, no Pet-Peeve violations. Stay tuned.
