Event: Reminder - Tutor Talks on Friday!!

[ten grrl]

Dear Writing Center Tutors and Consultants, There's still time to RSVP for February Tutor Talks this Friday, February 27th, at 10:30 AM CST (11:30 AM EST / 8:30 AM PST): Making New Maps: Navigating AI Literacy for Writing Center Tutors. When we asked tutors around the country what topics they most wanted to discuss and share strategies for, our top request was for more guidance on AI. Even as surveys show up to 86% of college students report using generative AI programs, universities have been slow to offer guidance on adapting our pedagogical strategies to this new environment.  As Writing Center tutors, we have to decide how to navigate these conversations every day, making our way through a complicated patchwork of different policies offered by different professors, ever-proliferating types of AI integration, and new citation rules to account for new types of AI use. In this session, we’ll offer both insights on new developments and guided questions to enable participants to crowdsource our knowledge, sharing our pedagogical strategies and insights with other tutors. If you’d like to participate online, don’t worry–you do NOT need to register for the conference. Just RSVP through the Google Form linked here, and we’ll send you a Zoom link on the day of the session. Because this Tutor Talks will be a part of the SCWCA Conference schedule, it will be a uniquely visible and public session. We want to make sure attendees are aware that this session may be witnessed by in-person conference attendees, including administrators. We hope to see you there!

Sincerely,

The Tutor Talks Executive Committee
