About the Conference

The Conference began in 2014, hosted by Lake Superior College. Its purpose is to bring together teachers of writing and literacy to exchange ideas, best practices, common challenges, and innovations in the teaching of writing and English as a Second Language (in a range of secondary and higher education contexts). The annual Summit especially values experimentation in our small-group sessions as acts of discovery in teaching and learning. And we value thoughtful, intelligent sharing in question-and-answer sessions with very active audience participation.

The 2021 conference is hosted by University of Wisconsin-Superior!
