Critical Pedagogies at CUNY\, Composition Conference CFP
< p>Critical Pedagogies at CUNY: Learning through WritingThe City University of New York has long been a home for innova tive\, thoughtful writing pedagogies that have sought to engage and support its large\, diverse student body. This year\, with the removal of the univ ersity-wide mandate that students pass the CATW to exit remedial writing an d the increased presence of Accelerated Learning Programs (ALP)\, we have a n opportunity to reflect on and re-evaluate what we are doing in our compos ition classrooms and programs. “Critical Pedagogies at CUNY: Learning throu gh Writing” is a forum for practitioners and scholars of composition\, rhet oric\, and writing studies to explore new and existing critical frameworks around teaching composition\, theorize the current state of writing pedagog y at CUNY colleges and across the nation\, model effective writing practice s\, and invite new voices to join a crucial university-wide conversation ab out writing.
We want to take stock of where we have been and understa nd better where we are: what does writing look like at CUNY? How can we pri oritize “critical pedagogies\,” pedagogies that proactively engage with and reflect thoughtfully on our students’ writing\, so that classroom instruct ion becomes more meaningful for students? How are such reflective pedagogic al practices helping students become more conscientious and deliberate writ ers and helping faculty to become more thoughtful teachers and scholars? Ho w can we establish shared practices across the two-year and four-year colle ges that prepare students to succeed at CUNY and beyond?
We invite pa
per submissions on composition pedagogy and research you are engaged in on
your home CUNY campus\, as well as presentations that deal with any aspect
of writing theory or practice across the university. Issues that are of par
ticular significance to faculty and students at LaGuardia include developme
ntal writing and ALP programs\, multimodal writing\, WAC/WID\, creative wri
ting pedagogies\, multilingualism\, and translation studies. We also welcom
e proposals on a range of topics including but not limited to:
Develop
ing a Writing Program/WPA work
Writing across the 2-yr and 4-yr colleg
es
Writing Centers
Hybrid courses
Civic & Social Action and/
or Community Writing Programs
Rhetoric and genre
Technical commun
ication
Students’ writing lives inside and outside the university
Diversity in the classroom
Recent developments in writing pedagogy
We will accept proposals for individual (15 minute) papers or full pane ls that feature 2-3 speakers\, but we encourage other formats that will ins pire more audience engagement\, such as
A pedagogical workshop (1-3 p
resenters) in which presenters showcase a lesson or assignment\, invite par
ticipation\, and share materials with audience members.
A roundtable d
iscussion (4-6 presenters) that may feature a variety of themes aimed at cr
eating dialogue between multiple voices across our institutions. You might
consider a roundtable that showcases student work and perspectives\, or a c
onversation that features meaningful faculty collaborations.
All sess ions will be a total of 90 minutes.
Please submit your proposal of 30
0 words to
criticalpedagogieslagcc@gmail.com by December 8th\, 2017. F
ollowing your 300-word abstract\, please include a brief bio featuring each
presenter’s name and contact information (e-mail\, mailing address\, & tel
ephone number)\, institutional affiliation\, and AV needs\, if any. After r
eview by the program committee\, notifications will be sent by January 31\,
2018.
