University Writing

Each month interested professors from many different disciplines gather over lunch to discuss best ways to teach writing. Following a brief mini-lesson on the theme of the month (i.e. designing assignments, preparing rubrics, or training TAs), they meet in small groups led by a writing expert to share their experience.
