CFP: [Rhetoric-Composition] Essays on Digital Media for Upcoming Collection

Thursday, August 30, 2007 - 2:48pm
Heather Urbanski

For the upcoming essay collection "Writing (and) the Digital Generation"
(under contract with McFarland), I am soliciting contributions that analyze
the many facets of participatory digital entertainment. The key assumption
of this project is that, contrary to the claim that “no one reads anymore,”
a vast “Digital Generation” actually engages in more rhetorical activity
than perhaps any before. This collection seeks essays that describe and
document these participatory activities and how they are changing how we
see writing, perhaps permanently.

Rhetorics and Ethics of the Decision (9/10/07; RSA 2008)

I am seeking submissions for a panel to be proposed for the 2008
Rhetoric Society of America Conference in Seattle, WA
(http://www.rhetoricsociety.org/). I’d like to invite preliminary
proposals (no more than 250 words) that present rhetorical or ethical
approaches to the decision. The “decision,” here, is conceived broadly,
and any ethical, rhetorical, or theoretical aspect you wish to engage is
welcome. Ideally, the completed panel will contribute in some way to the
conference theme “The Responsibilities of Rhetoric.” Possibilities
include (but are not limited to):

The editors of _Learning Through Writing: A Compendium of Assignments and Techniques_
invite contributions for a new edition of our publication. _Compendium_ will be a collection of
essays, assignments, and writing guidelines designed as a cross-disciplinary resource for the
instruction of post-secondary writing. As well as providing valuable exercises and tips,
_Compendium_ addresses pedagogical and technological issues currently facing instructors,
such as the integration of editorial training within the classroom, teaching composition and
critical thinking across the disciplines, collaborative writing and the web, and negotiating the
digitization of library and archival resources.
