January 29, 2025, 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
Location:
Naugle Communication Center (447 Clough Undergraduate Learning Commons)
In response to the TechWrites Fall 2025 faculty survey, the Communication Center is pleased to offer a workshop tailored to the top priorities identified by respondents: supporting student reading and strengthening the reading-writing connection in the classroom.
Join us for an interactive, hands-on workshop led by Carolyne King, an expert in the reading-writing connection.
This workshop will help you:
- Clarify the reading-writing goals that matter most in your courses.
- Discover practical strategies to make these goals more explicit and achievable for your students.
Participants are encouraged (but not required) to bring their syllabus and an assignment prompt/sheet to tailor the workshop to their teaching needs.
Don’t miss this opportunity to refine your teaching practices and engage your students more effectively!
Registration is requested to secure your spot. We look forward to seeing you there!
