Writing-Based Teaching Online

The New Kinds of Attention online workshop series offers short, accessible introductions to IWT writing-based teaching practices. It is designed for educators who are curious about IWT workshops or looking to expand their writing-based teaching toolkit, including those unable to attend IWT’s on-campus workshops at Bard. The workshops in this series provide an immmersive, online introduction to IWT pedagogy and a taste of the experience of our popular July Weeklong Workshops.

In 2024, the series will be held on February 9, February 23, and March 8, from 10 am–2:30 pm EST, including a 30-minute break. This year's series will include our four foundational workshops, as well as a selection of special topics (to be announced October 2024).

Hear it from our participants

"Honestly, it was beautifully done in every way I can imagine. Respectful, engaging, interactive, reflective—it had it all."

"I couldn’t have asked for better professional development. I know I’m walking into my classroom on Monday having gained an immense amount of pedagogical knowledge."
