Professionalizing Multimodal Composition: Faculty and Institutional Initiatives

https://bit.ly/2t8h0wv

The traditional apprenticeship model is a well-documented paradigm for engaging undergraduates in research. In recent years, course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) have become more common. Many factors influence a mentor’s ability to use these models, and sometimes alternative paths are needed to engage in undergraduate research. The winter 2020 issue of Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research (SPUR) will explore these nontraditional approaches to undergraduate research.

Topics of interest include the following:

Call for Proposals: PARtake: The Journal of Performance as Research, volume 3, issue 2. 

Pedagogies of/and Performance-as-Research

Special themed issue with guest editor Emily Rollie

In its initial issues, PARtake has explored key topics related to the dynamic field of Performance-as-Research, including the modes of performing research, the ethics of participating in research, activism in PAR, and the rich intersections of embodiment and somatic intelligence in PAR. This issue continues in that trend, specifically examining the relationship between PAR and pedagogy – the ways pedagogy intersects with, is influenced by, and is utilized in PAR. 

Media Literacy and Academic Research is inviting papers for Vol. 3, No. 1 which is scheduled to be published on April 2020.

The journal does not have article processing charges (APCs) and article submission charges. Media Literacy and Academic Research welcomes article submissions and does not charge a publication fee.

CFP for NJCEA Annual Conference on March 21, 2020 at Seton Hall University

Joyce Carol Oates famously asked, "Where are you Going? Where have you Been?" As the English profession continues to evolve, our conference will explore these questions.

We are particularly interested in proposals for full traditional panels including at least four presenters, roundtables of six to eight speakers, workshops, individual papers, posters, and presentations that consider these questions for the profession, for the discipline, for our areas of specialization, and for the larger society. What is our role as scholars, researchers, teachers and community members during a time of worldwide transition?

TRANSITIONS AND TRANSACTIONS V: TEACHING LITERATURE AMONG THE ARTS

We invite community college faculty to submit paper and panel proposals for the fifth Transitions and Transactions conference presented by the English Department at Borough of Manhattan Community College, CUNY on April 24-25, 2020. The Transitions and Transactions conference is dedicated to helping community college instructors flourish and excel as we envision, invent and expand our ideas of teaching given the demands of the community college population, the challenges and constraints specific to our profession, and the pressures of our particular historical moment.

This conference aims at joining together researchers and teachers from different fields of language education and linguistics that address topics related to foreign language learning. 

The working languages of the Conference are English, French, Portuguese and Spanish, with specific panels for each one of them.

We welcome abstracts for individual papers in parallel sessions.

Individual papers will be assigned 30 minutes: 20 minutes for the presentation and 10 minutes for questions and discussion. 

I'll be submitting a proposal for a panel on *Medieval Neurodiversity* to the Annual meeting of the Canadian Society of Medievalists conference, to be held at the 2020 Congress in London, Ontario, at the University of Western Ontario, June 3-5.  Discussions could tie in to medieval disability studies in a number of ways, including:

- medieval mental states/mental health, queer minds, nonbinary minds, anxious minds

- depictions of radical introversion (e.g., Diogenes)

- mental complexity in Middle English (e.g., Hoccleve)

- medieval social anxiety (e.g., Merlin and social exile in Monmouth, de Boron, et al.)
