It's good to see interest picking up on the Mosaic List. I'm seeing a lot of messages that are being rejected so here's some reminders.
1. Send only to mosaic@literacyworkshop.org Our list will only accept messages that are ONLY to the list. NOBODY else can be listed. If you include any other person or organization as a recipient (Cc or BCc), the message will be rejected. The reason for this is that spammers and hijackers almost always send messages to multiple people. I've already seen 8-10 messages rejected today for this reason. 2. Trim Your Messages We also reject messages that are too long. This is 99% due to a person not deleting quoted text from previous messages. Please trim quoted text before you send to list as it helps everyone. 3. Mosaic List is Public Anything posted on our list can be accessed by anyone. This includes people at your school as well as employers and prospective employers. We cannot delete anything after it is posted. 4. Attachments Not Allowed We do not allow attachments to be sent to this list. If you want to share a personal document that you created you can send to me (kmack@literacyworkshop) and I will post on the website. 5. Forced Moderation When a situation needs to be cooled off, the list will be put on forced moderation. That means that every message has to be approve by me. Frequently this happens when people start the "me too" requests. If you want a member to send you something, PLEASE contact the member not the 3,000+ members of the list that can't send you the resource. We also moderate the list when there are "perceived" personal attacks on a topic. This doesn't happen very often, but can come with strong beliefs and commitments to certain topics and practices. Posting to Mosaic is a privilege and not a right so please focus your posts on improving reading and literacy instruction. If you ever need help with anything on this list, please contact Keith Mack (km...@literacyworkshop.org).
