Like the invitational Summer Institute for Teachers, this Institute offers participants opportunities to develop personal writing and explore best practices for incorporating writing in the classroom.
Participants experience writing in a variety of genres, as well as writing across the curriculum.
They engage in a one-day seminar with a visiting professional writer, and respond daily to discussion and learning through journal writing. In addition to the response journal, participants produce an anthology including at least one piece from each participant. Computer labs are available for use during the Institute. Applications will be accepted on a first-come basis as enrollment is limited to 20 participants. Fill it out on-screen and then print it, or print the empty form and fill it out by hand.
