Maynooth University, in consultation with a number of teaching and learning networks, including Maynooth University Early Childhood, the Further Education Support Service, the Reading Association of Ireland and the Irish Network for the Enhancement of Writing, will host a week long writing institute on campus.
The institute draws from the US National Writing Project model and is designed to provide an opportunity for dedicated teachers, from all education levels, to meet, share good practice, and learn more about writing and supporting the development of writing and writers.
The institute will take place daily from 10.00 am to 3.30pm from Monday, July 28th until Friday, August 1st, inclusive, and will be facilitated by, amongst others, staff of the Maynooth University Writing Centre, Education Department and Froebel Department, colleagues from University of Limerick, and invited colleagues from the Bay Area Writing Project, University of California, Berkeley.
All queries about the project should be directed to: writingcentre@mu.ie
