Next week I will be at the NCTE Conference on English Education, conveniently located in my new hometown, Fort Collins, CO. If you will be in town for this conference, please send me a note and say hello.

My CSU colleague, Cindy O’Donnell-Allen and I will be holding a workshop at the conference focused on our recent work in our English Education courses. The session is titled “Pose/Wobble/Flow: Thinking through Privilege with Preservice Teachers.” Here is a brief summary:

What strategies might help preservice teachers recognize their cultural positionality and understand how it might shape their instruction and interactions with future students? Participants will examine online texts, artifacts, reflections, and other materials generated in the course to identify three dimensions of students’ developmental process—pose, wobble, and flow.

For those of you going to the conference, the session will be held next Saturday at 10:30 a.m. See you there!
