Romantic Circles is very pleased to announce *Innovations,* the first
issue of the new online resource, The Romantic Pedagogy Commons:
http://www.rc.umd.edu/pedagogies/commons/innovations/
Edited by Laura Mandell, this issue contains news about the most
up-to-date online tools now available for courses in Romanticism,
including an essay by Mark Phillipson on Wikis, two essays by Jerome
McGann and Johanna Drucker on IVANHOE v. 1.0, an interview with Ben
Jacks about the use of poetry in an architecture class, and a more
traditional class on Romantic Ecology, designed by Walter Reed, that
has been infused with new technologies.
The issue contains innovative materials available for use in your
classrooms this semester: audio files for songs penned by Burns, Flash
picture presentations, and online syllabi and assignments that you can
use or download. The introduction to the *Innovations* issue and some
short essays in it inform readers about the topics of visual literacy
and pedagogy as they have been transformed over the past few decades in
relation to new media; these essays include bibliographies for further
reading.
