Subject: [DHSI] call for pedagogical partners for Women Writers in Review
Dear all,
The Women Writers Project is seeking collaborators for our pedagogical
consultant program, developing teaching materials for our newest
collection, Women Writers in Review (WWiR). WWiR (http://wwp.neu.edu/review/)
is an open-access collection of around 600 reviews, publication notices,
and other documents that respond or relate to texts by the authors in Women
Writers Online. We’re now inviting expressions of interest for pedagogical
development consultants, who would work with us to create assignments that
use WWiR, to be published on the WWP’s sites. Collaborators would have our
support in creating assignments and activities and would also be named as
pedagogical development consultants for the WWP. For more details on this
program and to read some assignments from our first cohort of teaching
partners, please see:
http://wwp.northeastern.edu/wwo/teaching/pedagogical-dev.html
For a detailed and thoughtful discussion of one WWiR-based assignment
sequence, written by Professor Jason Payton of Sam Houston State
University, please see:

We are also inviting responses from those who would like to develop—or who
already have!—assignments and activities involving Women Writers Online (
http://wwp.neu.edu/wwo) for publication on our site. If you don’t have
institutional access to WWO and would like to set up a trial (for either
yourself or your institution), please contact us. More details on WWO
licensing and trials are here: http://wwp.neu.edu/wwo/license/
If you’re interested in getting involved with this program, please email
wwp@neu.edu with a brief expression of interest—just a short paragraph on
the teaching you’ll be doing in fall 2017 or spring 2018 and some initial
thoughts on how you’d like to use the WWiR or WWO collections. The deadline
for submissions will be October 15, 2017.
If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
All my best,
Sarah
