The Center for Liberal Arts and Sciences Pedagogy invites all OSUN faculty to attend a free-of-charge workshop on "Writing to Read Difficult Texts."
This workshop is targeted at faculty teaching OSUN Online and Network Connected Courses, but the content in the module is broadly applicable. All faculty are welcome to attend.
Creative, generative, or low stakes writing assignments are less common in more technical disciplines (such as Law, Economics or Public Policy) that often require students to work with difficult, complex, theoretical texts. This three-hour long workshop offers participants writing-rich strategies to use in order to demystify difficult readings through the use of techniques that invite students to engage through writing as part of their reading process. Working together experientially, participants will explore the potential of practices such as focused free writing, text rendering, loop writing, writing from sight & scents, and performance, within their own classes.
For more information, call 845-758-6822.
