Dear Colleagues,
As you’re making your schedules for CCCC 2016, be sure to make time for the Taking Action workshops!
The TA Workshops are designed to help you take strategic action on issues that matter to you. There are five workshops in all, each facilitated by professional organizers/activists, and each will be offered twice daily on Thursday and Friday. There’s no preregistration required or additional costs for participating — just come with concerns and leave with strategies for action! You can attend as many as you’d like in any order.
The five workshops will focus on:
Naming and Narrowing Issues
Building Alliances
Framing Messages
Contributing to Policy
Making Action Plans
You can find an overview of the workshops at http://www.ncte.org/cccc/conv/act and see descriptions and a schedule for each workshop at http://www.ncte.org/cccc/conv/action-descriptions . If you’d like additional information, have questions, or anything else, please contact me at adler-...@writing.ucsb.edu, too.
See you in Houston!
Linda
