[ntwca] CBW/CCCC Fellowship (deadline fast approaching 11/15)

[Shannon Carter]

Hi, all--

Just a friendly reminder . . . 

http://www.asu.edu/clas/english/composition/cbw/Fellowship.htm

The Conference on Basic Writing is pleased to announce the 2007 CBW/CCCC
Fellowship, a $500 award given to a teacher of basic writing to subsidize
travel to CCCC in New York in March and participation in the Conference on
Basic Writing Pre-Conference Workshop.


The Fellowship is intended to support basic writing instructors who might
otherwise have difficulty attending CCCC; priority will be given to
instructors who demonstrate how attending the CBW workshop and CCCC will
benefit their development, and how they can use ideas gathered at the
conference at their home institution(s) and/or other venues.

Applicants need not have had a paper accepted for presentation at CCCC.
However, if presenting at the 2007 CCCC, titles and abstracts of papers
should be included with the application. Applicants for the fellowship must:

   1. Clearly outline how attending the CBW workshop and CCCC will benefit
their professional interests and the interests of the students with whom
they work

      2.  Provide a plan describing how they will disseminate information
and ideas gathered during the CCCC to professional colleagues and students
after their attendance at the conference

      The Fellowship winner should plan to attend the CBW CCCC
Pre-Conference workshop (the full Wednesday before the conference) and the
CBW SIG.  Each year's fellowship recipient will be recognized at the CBW
Special Interest Group at CCCC.

      To apply, send a 2-page letter, a curriculum vita, and, if applicable,
title and abstract of an accepted 2007 CCCC presentation as Microsoft Word
attachment(s) to e-mail message by Novem,ber 15, 2006.  Materials should be
sent to: Shannon_Carter at TAMU-Commerce.edu or to the campus address listed
below.  Please email me if you have questions or concerns.

Best regards,

Shannon Carter
