Dear Inkshedders and friends:
The seventh Inkshed newsletter is now available at
http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/newsletter/june-2014-newsletter/.
It will give you lots to read and think about, starting with a piece by
Doug Brent about learning from librarians
<http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/newsletter/june-2014-newsletter/learning-from-librarians-what-writing-studies-can-learn-from-literature-on-information-literacy/>,
and then giving you tastes and reminders of the stimulating Inkshed 30
conference in Waterloo. That includes a WordCloud showing responses to
the plenary talk
<http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/newsletter/june-2014-newsletter/what-inkshed-30-talked-about/>,
an amusing report by WLU participants on experiments with technology in
their writing centre
<http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/newsletter/june-2014-newsletter/technology-coming-through-the-wlu-writing-centre/>,
and U of T and Windsor advice and questions about teaching writing in
other people's classrooms
<http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/newsletter/june-2014-newsletter/bespoke-writing-instruction/>.
Theresa Hyland also shares her answer to a sensible question: why are
there so many writing-studies conferences
<http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/newsletter/june-2014-newsletter/an-open-letter-why-there-are-three-conferences/>
each spring? The capstone is the minutes of the 2014 AGM
<http://www.inkshed.ca/blog/newsletter/june-2014-newsletter/minutes-of-casll-agm-29-may-2014/>,
which reveal among other tidbits the location of next year's conference(s).
All of these pieces invite further thoughts. Please share yours by using
the response boxes on the site or by writing your own article for the
next newsletter.
Happy summer reading, and happy summer writing too!
