Prospective Forum: RCWS Creative Writing on MLA Commons 11 years, 8 months agoI support the creation of a RCWS Creative Writing Forum because I believe it will gather together storytellers publishing in digital, print and hybrid settings.

Prospective Forum: HEP Program Administration on MLA Commons 11 years, 8 months agoOne question I have about the focus of the Program Administration Forum is whether it will be specifically focused on Writing Programs, or more broadly cover administrative issues for all types of programs relevant to MLA members.
Either way, as chair of the Humanities Department and de factor Writing Program Coordinator (our department is…[Read more]

Common Core Standards Initiative Discussion Group on MLA Commons 11 years, 9 months agoLooking forward to hearing more about successful collaborations between HS and college instructors. I’m finding that such collaborations are often challenging because of the following barriers, so would love to see the MLA, or any organization, come up with strategies to address them:
1. HS instructors do not get release time to work on c…[Read more]
