Free Webinar - Teaching Writing in the Common-Core Era - Tuesday January 29, 2 – 3 p.m. ET

Teaching Writing in the Common-Core Era

The Common Core State Standards demand that teachers of all subjects teach literacy skills that are specific to their disciplines. They also expect students to prepare for the workplace by reading and writing about a wide variety of nonfiction texts. In this webinar, two experts who coach teachers in the field share the guidance they’ve developed for cross-disciplinary writing and for writing that builds workplace-relevant skills.

Guests:

  • Cathy Fleischer, professor of English, Eastern Michigan University, co-director, Eastern Michigan Writing Project
  • Kathleen Yancey, professor of English and director of the graduate program in rhetoric and composition, Florida State University

This webinar will be moderated by Catherine Gewertz, assistant editor for Education Week.

Underwriting for the content of this webinar has been provided by The Lumina Foundation

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
