Hi Rebecca, As far as I know we are about to launch such a group at London Met... Best Tom Burns > Hello Everyone, > > Some of you may be aware that since Christmas we have been running an > Academic Writing Readers Group here at Nottingham Trent University. The > focus of the group is to provide a forum in which academics can discuss > current theory and practice in supporting and developing student > academic writing. The meetings use a current theoretical debate or paper > in the field to structure and lead the discussion which is often very > fruitful. The sessions have become very popular with debate from the > group often continuing between attendees via the universities e-mail > system. As facilitator for these sessions, I have been contacted by a > number of people throughout the HE sector inquiring about the project > and it has led to me to wonder if anyone else runs such a group. If > anyone has trialled or currently facilitates a similar group (whether > successful or otherwise) I would really like to hear from you. > > With thanks > > Becky > > Rebecca Bell > Learning and Teaching Officer, > Centre for Academic Standards & Quality, > Nottingham Trent University, > 37 Park Row, > Nottingham, NG1 4BU > [log in to unmask] > > > > > This email is intended solely for the addressee.
