Please join us for our fall SWCA-KY event and invite your writing center colleagues.
This workshop will focus on 1) reflecting on our challenges and choices as writing center professionals during this time of crisis and then 2) using those experiences to help create proposals for the upcoming SWCA conference.
This workshop is open to anyone involved with KY Writing Centers to attend -- so, please encourage your undergrad staffers, your grad students, and/or your assistant directors to be part of what I hope will be a thoughtful conversation.
We'll use our time to look carefully at the CFP and then to do some brainstorming about our current and recent work in our respective programs. In the end, participants will have the beginnings of a conference proposal draft.
It is my hope that we can use this time to demystify conference proposal drafting (especially for folks who might feel less than confident about writing center research) and to encourage each other to showcase their efforts at SWCA. Despite my regrets about us not being able to gather in Memphis (one of my favorite cities for food and music!), I think this could potentially be the biggest and most accessible SWCA ever. I'd love to see a record number of KY WC's represented.
