pedagogy

Technical communication, as a field of practice and study, has grown larger and more varied in response to the rapidly developing technologies, new forms of globalization, and shifting institutional demands of the past 20 years—all greatly intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic within the last five. How, then, do today's instructors of technical communication meet the current moment as well as current student needs?

Session Type: Roundtable

Modality: F2F/ In-person, only

As educators navigate increasingly complex and emotionally demanding teaching landscapes, the question of ‘who we are when we teach’ becomes as important as what or how we teach’ This roundtable invites participants into a collaborative exploration of pedagogies of archetypes: the idea that teaching is guided not only by rational methods and explicit beliefs, but also by symbolic, emotional, and archetypal energies.

T&T VIII: ALGORITHMS, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE CLASSROOM

APRIL 17-18, 2026

The Mid-Atlantic Review seeks scholarly articles, position papers, short fiction, poems, and pedagogical reflections for its Special 2025 Issue focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI). In the span of a year or two, generative AI has posed unprecedented challenges to and opportunities for higher education, the humanities, and the arts. Intellectual, pedagogical, and artistic engagement with this emerging technology is vital in our current world and this issue of The Mid-Atlantic Review encourages such engagement. We are also looking for original photographs or artwork related to the Mid-Atlantic region. Ethically produced AI art related to the Mid-Atlantic region would be of particular interest for this issue.

CFP (edited volume): 13 Exigencies for Teaching the Essay

As readers of Milton know, Milton’s writings are often humorous, titillating, outrageous – extra in today’s colloquial parlance. Of course, they are also challenging, but this too can be pleasurable. Studying Milton involves, simply put, serious fun. How might we rethink our affective approaches to Milton’s poetry and prose to spotlight not only their difficulty but also their recreation? What is at stake for Milton and for us in the pleasures derived from, for example, an over-the-top invective or a sarcastic God? What are sustaining and enlivening potentials in critical and creative practices, such as speculation, auto-criticism, and parody? And how might we mobilize these potentials in our writing and teaching to engage new audiences?

I would like to organize a session at the AWP Conference, March 4-7. I would like to present the research I am currently developing for a book called "Writing Erudite Speculative Fiction". I hope to find other presenters who would like to discuss strategies about formulaic, genre-based, or other types of fiction writing strategies, especially aimed at the literary or sophisticated marketplace. This session is tailored for professors of creative writing who want unique approaches to teaching. The rules are:

Politics and Leadership, Leadership Studies and Politics

Politics and leadership: two subjects that are commonly known, yet also deeply misunderstood. Politics is not merely the activities of official decision-makers and the ideas (and people) that give rise to them, but also, more broadly, how human groups determine who gets what (and under what circumstances—by consent or coercion). What if leadership is not entirely a person or position? Perhaps, leadership is a negotiation— a complex moral relationship between people that is predicated on role agreement. We might say, then, that leadership is a dynamic process that cannot be separated from the politics of human groups. Leadership, in this way, is very fundamentally political.

Routledge Handbook of AI and World Language Learning – call for chapters

Editors: Weixiao Wei 

The Routledge Handbook of AI and World Language Learning will explore the transformative role of artificial intelligence in language education, offering a critical and comprehensive analysis of how AI is expected to reshape the ways languages are taught, learned, and assessed.

Preliminarily divided into six thematic sections, the handbook will bridge theory, research, and practice to establish AI-driven language learning as a rigorous academic field. It is intended to serve as a vital resource for researchers, educators, ed-tech developers, policymakers, and postgraduate students.
