Opportunities and Challenges forTeaching and Learning 

The Offices of Teaching Support and Learning Services at Wilfrid Laurier
University invite members of the teaching and learning community to submit
proposals for its one-day teaching conference on Wednesday August 27th,
2008.

The one-day event aims to: 

*	spotlight writing as a tool to promote learning within and beyond
the classroom (online/hybrid/face-to-face) regardless of discipline 

*	showcase writing innovations and research at Laurier and beyond 

*	provide a forum to share ideas that can be translated to individual
practice 

*	strengthen and reinforce writing traditions at Laurier. 

Dr. John Bean of Seattle University, an internationally renowned author,
speaker, and expert on writing will be joining us as our keynote speaker
promoting two broad themes of Writing to Learn and Writing Across/Within the
Disciplines. His talk will frame the remainder of the day's events which
include: three sets of concurrent sessions, lunch and a closing wine and
cheese reception.
