Who I Am and What I'm Writing
My name is Kosta, and I live in Toronto (no big surprise there!). I am currently working on the following Wikibook:


 * Student's Guide to Michel Foucault

Interests
My personal interests include:


 * Literature (I'm currently into thrillers, but I keep coming back to works by Joyce and Atwood)
 * English (I love etymology and theories of language acquisition)
 * Education (especially technology-enhanced learning and critical pedagogy)
 * History (mainly post-confederation Canadian history, but also general Western history)
 * Philosophy (I've recently re-discovered my interest in Foucault, hence the Wikibook)

My applied interests include:
 * Teaching English to college-level ESL learners
 * Using Web 2.0 tools such as discussion boards, wikis, blogs, and podcasts, both in my own teaching and in my training of colleagues
 * Developing resources (handouts, "user guides," online demos, etc.)
