3 p.m. Friday, December 11th in Room C206

This week, The CUNY Academic Commons is releasing a very exciting tool for collaborative writing and feedback. Social Paper will allow members of the Commons to network in-progress writing and feedback across disciplines, semesters, and publics, as well as discover the writing of their Graduate Center peers. Additionally, Social Paperwill allow students to create an ongoing, dynamic archive of both public, private and in-progress writing.

More information about Social Paper will be forthcoming later this week from the official development team. In the meantime, please mark your calendars for Friday at 3 p.m. (Room C206) when we will be demoing Social Paper for use in classes and academic writing. Laptops are encouraged, but not necessary. During this session, participants will also be encouraged to discuss ways we, as academics, might further participate in the development of our writing and communication platforms to better reflect our values and needs.
