The CEE Web Editing Team has been hard at work, and this is the first in what we hope will become a series of regular podcasts with leaders in English Education. Please add comments to the page and continue the conversation about teaching writing in the 21st century.
“The meaning of writing is changing pretty dramatically,” claims Anne Ruggles Gere, Past-President of NCTE. Given the theme of this fall’s annual convention, “Because Shift Happens: Teaching in the Twenty-First Century,” her work on NCTE’s new “Writing Now” Policy Research Brief is particularly timely, and the topic of this CEE Podcast.
I am a doctorate student and I am about to undertake my research project. I am interested in non-traditional adult learners in a higher education program and their perspective on academic writing. I would like to explore their perception, attitude, belief, and concerns about the challenge of writing on a graduate level.
Charles,
If you want timely updates on writing programs, you should definitely join the WPA list, if you haven’t already: http://wpacouncil.org/wpa-l
Good luck with your research.
