Seattle Times Article
An interesting article on Adjunct Pay was in yesterday's Seattle Times. Also, if you are interested in pay issues, you might want to check out the current issue of The Adjunct Advocate, as there is a story regarding pay equity there.

A New Book about Teaching Online
A new book, Making Money Teaching Online, is now available for preorder.
Given that there is an ongoing debate about how online and onground teaching are different, I'm a bit dismayed about the way in which the title focuses on making money, rather than on quality instruction. I'll also post this entry to our LiveJournal Community (see the link to the right) so that we can actually discuss this if folks want to.
If I can get my hands on the book from a library, perhaps I'll post a review.
