About the series: The goal of this series is to provide an opportunity for our community to explore WAW-focused literature in a synchronous group setting, both to find practical applications to implement in our teaching and to inform our own WAW projects. Graduate students and faculty within our WAW community select articles and discussion prompts to guide and engage us in conversations. These papers are a starting point to explore and examine one WAW area of scholarship and/or teaching pedagogy, and topics chosen will resonate across WAW experience levels and institutional contexts.
We hope you consider joining our sessions; everyone is welcome, whether you are a long-time group member, just joined this year, or are simply curious about WAW.
*The readings are not prerequisites for attendance. Summaries of the article will be provided at the beginning of each session.
