The Fall 2021 Institute for Teaching with Writing.

This series of two virtual, interactive workshops took place from 2-5 pm on Friday, October 1st and Friday, October 8th. The first session focused on designing meaningful assignments, scaffolding them with informal writing-to-learn activities, and expanding meaning-making potential by incorporating multimodal elements. The October 8th session focused on responding to and evaluating students' formal, informal, and multimodal writing as effectively and efficiently as possible. Participants also shared and discussed an assignment they revised based on what they learned in the first session.

Facilitators were instructors in Rhetoric, the Writing Center, English and Education and Linguistics from the Obermann Working Group on the Teaching of Writing. The Institute was by the Writing Center, the Obermann Center and the Department of Rhetoric.
