This might be of interest to some on the list. The blog entry linked in 
the first paragraph provides an accessible overview of the videos with 
links to them. JA

Dear all,

In July, I asked folks on a few lists for links to video and audio 
interviews with faculty talking about writing in their disciplines. I 
circulated the links I received (see below), but my colleague, Alexandra 
Cavallaro, and I also just posted a blog entry 
<http://wacillinois.wordpress.com/>that highlights a few of the video 
series. It didn't seem like there was a place that indexed these videos 
or talked about their importance--hence this post. Please feel free to 
circulate!

The blog, WAC@Illinois <http://wacillinois.wordpress.com/>, is addressed 
to instructors across campus, including those who have participated in 
WAC seminars.

Best,

        Dear all,

        The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign's Center for
        Writing Studies recently started a monthly blog series
        <http://wacillinois.wordpress.com/>for UIUC instructors who are
        currently incorporating WAC approaches in their classes or would
        like to do so.

        For research for a blog post, I'm looking for writing programs
        that have created and posted video or audio interviews with
        instructors (or even upper-level undergraduates and graduate
        students) about writing in their fields (e.g., their writing
        process, the link between research and writing,
        discipline-specific writing).

        So far, I've found just a few programs that have done this:

        *Stanford*
        https://undergrad.stanford.edu/programs/pwr/explore/writing-matters
        http://www.stanford.edu/group/howiwrite/videos.html

        *UC Davis*
        http://writing.ucdavis.edu/sciencewriters/uwp.html

        *UCF*
        http://wac.cah.ucf.edu/node/39

        I'm sure there are others out there. If you know of more, please
        let me know! I'll circulate the revised list.

        Thanks so much.

        Best,
