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, 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, an amusing report by WLU participants on
experiments
with technology in their writing centre, and U of T and
Windsor advice and questions about teaching
writing in other people's classrooms. Theresa Hyland also
shares her answer to a sensible question: why are there so
many writing-studies conferences each spring? The capstone is
the minutes
of the 2014 AGM, 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!
Margaret Procter
