  • 4/7 Literacy and the CWP with Jason Courtmanche

    Join Literary Minds this Thursday April 7, 2022 at 6:30pm as Jason Courtmanche discusses literacy and his work with the Connecticut Writing Project.
     
    The CWP-Storrs, one of the oldest sites of the National Writing Project, was established at the University of Connecticut in 1982. Since 1986, the site has benefitted from funding from the Aetna Endowed Chair of Writing. Through its annual Invitational Summer Institute, the CWP offers opportunities for professional growth to teachers in all disciplines who recognize the worth of using writing as a means of learning any subject matter. Improving writing skills improves thinking skills and thus leads to higher levels of achievement in all areas. In addition, the CWP offers professional development services to schools and school districts, and a variety of opportunities for students to publish their writing.
