Using a Process-Oriented Approach to Student Writing to Deepen Learning and Engagement workshop

Posted by Michael Coley on Thursday, October 19, 2023 in News.

Research suggests that providing students repeated opportunities to create, evaluate, and revise various types of writing, especially for authentic audiences, can catalyze deeper forms of learning. Through this workshop, we will discuss research-based strategies for improving student writing and content learning in a variety of disciplinary areas. Participants will either revise an existing writing assignment or outline a writing lesson that applies effective writing pedagogy. We will also consider the affordances and challenges that ChatGPT and other forms of generative AI present to writing pedagogy while exploring examples of writing assignments that integrate generative AI, including some developed by Vanderbilt faculty. If you would like to attend, please register here.
