This conference will celebrate the
EWCA's
12th birthday and our 7th international
gathering of a community of scholars,
professors, administrators, students,
writing center tutors and professionals.
We sincerely hope our 2010 conference
will offer each of you significant
opportunities for shared research and
common action across social divides,
educational disciplines, languages and
cultures.
Central to our conference theme will be
to:
Rethink the connection between writing
across the curriculum (WAC) programs and
Writing Centers and the role they play
(individually and collectively) in
nurturing and advancing the culture of
writing in Europe and beyond:
What kinds of programs are succeeding in
Europe?
What kinds of programs make the most
sense for European institutions?
Can the American model be exported to
Europe?
Examine the pedagogical,
institutional, and political
implications of formal writing
instruction in European colleges and
universities.
We hope this conference will be of
interest to people who are concerned
with using writing to improve teaching
and learningfaculty, administrators,
and students from post-secondary
institutions, as well as faculty and
administrators from secondary schools. |
