Summer Seminar for Writing Research - Save the Dates! First call.
We are excited to announce the 16th annual Dartmouth Summer Seminar for Writing Research, July 14-26, 2027. The host for the 2027 Seminar is the University of Tartu in Estonia.
“The Summer Seminar was one of the most rewarding professional experiences of my career.” (previous participant)
The 2027 Dartmouth Summer Seminar for Writing Research is designed for writing faculty from all types of higher education venues who are working on empirical research about writing in a variety of higher education contexts, and who would like an intensive, high-powered 12 days to work on that research, review approaches and methods, consult directly with experts, and network long-term with a cohort of other researchers from around the world. Guided interaction about participants’ projects is offered in the months leading up to the Seminar. The Seminar itself offers a quiet, resource-rich environment, coursework, small-group discussion and exchange, individual consultation with Seminar leaders, time to work alone or in groups on research projects, and a concluding presentation to the group with feedback from team leaders. We encourage both individuals and research groups or teams to apply.
