    GSOLE invites you to volunteer for the Conference Planning Committee. Each year, GSOLE offers a virtual conference in February, and this important virtual gathering is only possible because of generous volunteers. Any active GSOLE member can join the committee. To join, we ask that you complete this brief Conference Committee Member survey, which will help us identify the best way to contact you and learn about your workflow preferences and needs. We realize that our community thrives when we have different perspectives and points of view serving on this committee and hope if you have the interest and bandwidth, you’ll consider joining us!

     

    Conference Committee members will have a voice in shaping and promoting the call for proposals, reviewing presentation proposals, designing the conference experience and preparation materials, and facilitating conference sessions during the conference event. Want to just join us for part of this preparation work? That’s great! We’ll take whatever help you are willing to give whenever you are willing to give it. On the survey you can indicate what project you’d like to be involved in and when you can volunteer.

     

    Thank you for your support, labor, and expertise. Whether or not you choose to join the committee, we hope you will join us at the conference in February. 

     

    Sincerely, 

    Conference Planning Committee Co-Chair, Kevin DePew

    GSOLE Joins Pedagogue Audio Texts Project

    Dr. Shane Wood’s Audio Texts project is committed to making writing studies research accessible to audiences inside and outside higher education by inviting authors to read and record audio versions of their publications. If you have published in OLOR Effective Practices journal (editor Jason Snart), Research in Online Literacy Education journal (editors Ashlyn Walden and Michelle Stucky), and OLOR Reviews (editor Beatrice Newman) and are willing to create an audio-version of your work, please let Dr. Wood know. Learn more about the project and the process for recording audio versions of your work at this Audio Texts Project website.

    Call for Proposals—2024 CCCC Fall Virtual Institute: Machine Writing and the Work of Rhetoric and Composition 

    Institute Date: October 23, 2024

    Proposal Deadline: August 9, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. ET

    We’re excited to invite group (4–5 speakers) and individual roundtable proposals for the first-ever one-day CCCC Fall Virtual Institute, devoted to critical conversations on wicked problems challenging rhetoric and composition. This year, we seek roundtable discussions that build on current conversations about machine learning and writing.

    We imagine this event differently than a virtual conference that replicates in-person CCCC. Rather, the CCCC Fall Virtual Institute is a space for provocative presentations of ideas, focused writing, and small-group interactions. Each roundtable session will work as a foundation of provocation that will inspire attendees to write, compose, reflect, and move new or existing projects forward. By the end of the conference, the results of the conversation will be distributed to CCCC members. We consider this institute an opportunity to learn in the community.

    The event will feature eight roundtable sessions on machine writing, two on each of the four larger areas of interest that machine learning challenges: theory, pedagogy, assessment, and administration. The day will include four participant-created roundtables and four chair-created roundtables with no special distinction made between them. Each panel, whether participant-created or chair-created, will have opportunities to collaborate with each other and the co-chairs before the event. Those submitting proposals for individual roles will be placed in a chair-created roundtable.



    The GSOLE community is interested in collaborating on a panel proposal for the 2024 CCCC Fall Virtual Institute on machine writing in rhetoric and composition, which will be held on Oct. 23, 2024.

    If you want to join in on the proposal, please email:
    Justin Cary

    jcary1@charlotte.edu

    by July 20

    with a short summary of the role you’d like to play on the roundtable.
