Dear Assembly for Expanded Perspectives on Learning members:

Below is a list of 5 of our upcoming activities, followed by descriptions of each:

1) Graves, Brand, Suhor reunion, May 4

2) JAEPL editorship opening

3) our SIG at CCCC in New Orleans April 3

4) a related mini-conference at AERA in New York March 23-24

5) our workshop on reflection in New Orleans, April 2 (if you received notice of this earlier, we apologize for the repetition)

One further note: Rooms at Mount Madonna Center for the summer conference will almost definitely sell out (though there will still be plenty of space both for campers onsite and for commuters staying at the foot of the mountain). You can find the brochure and registration form for “Reclaiming the Wisdom Tradition for Education” at http://www.aepl.org.

Yours,

Bruce Novak, Conference Co-Chair

AEPL at CCCC in New Orleans

For AEPL members attending CCCC in New Orleans. The pre-conference workshop on Wednesday this year is entitled Reflection as Rhetorical Art. It features as keynote presenters Lois Agnew and Kathleen Yancey, as well as 6 mini-workshop opportunities duing the day. The day will provide a multi-facted look at the role reflection has played in the history of our discipline, in our professional lives, in our writing, in our teaching, and in our personal lives. Currently, we have planned to give each participant a CD with ideas and syllabi which incorporates reflection into our pedagogy. From the history of reflection to the creative functions of reflection, from women’s humor to service learning–don’t miss this opportunity to explore the infusion of reflection into your life.
