Knowledge Partner: Sage

Celebrating the wonderful energy and collegiality at the Critical Writing Pedagogies Symposium held at Ashoka University on 6 and 7 April, in partnership with Sage. It was a great privilege to have scholars and practitioners across the country come together to address discussions about nurturing critical thinking, and we cannot wait to see what comes next.

The Undergraduate Writing Programme at Ashoka University is one of the first writing and critical thinking programmes of its kind in the country. Our programme, developed bottom-up for the Indian context, is designed to cultivate rigorous writing practices in first-year students. It is our understanding that an education in the liberal arts is built upon the foundation of analytical thinking communicated through clear and persuasive writing across disciplines.
