Graduate Research Network (GRN) ONLINE

As part of Computers and Writing Online, the Graduate Research Network (GRN) will be hosting several events.  We hope that you will participate in these synchronous and asynchronous offerings.  If you can't come to the face-to-face conference, you'll find excellent dialogue here; otherwise, use this opportunity to prepare for that magical trip to Lubbock, Texas and the Computers and Writing Conference. (Click here for a handy flier about GRN to post in your department.)

ASYNCHRONOUS GRN:

The online GRN team invites you to submit short (500-3000 word) descriptions of research, which will be commented on by a team of experienced researchers throughout the online conference (February 6-28).  These posts will go into the C&W.org site: http://computersandwriting.org . See the Conference Attending guide found from the Guides page for help with posting your summary of your research.
