Update: Miller thinks his current dataset isn’t reliable, hence an update is not viable. The talk focuses on thinking about ways to collecting, cleaning, and validating the data before analysis is possible.

Joe Moses demonstrates “collaborative prompting” as a co-learning activity in writing pedagogy. Team promoting uses a role-based, task-specific method to building information density in shared projects. #4c26

#4c26 Most of the learning that happens at CCCC is confined to people who attended the sessions. A collection of knowledge work should help mobilize our collective wisdom beyond the physical conference. Can we do something like this companion publication again? publicationsncte.org/content/CCCC...

I like the in-person interactions and relational dynamics we may get at conferences, but let’s not overlook the needs of MANY members of our community who cannot afford to participate due to various factors—including funding, accessibility, citizenship/status, + other marginalizing forces. #4c26

Melissa Ianetta speaking behind a lectern giving the contexts for the session. On stage, she is joined by three other panelists (past CCCC program chairs) to her left and a sign language interpreter on her right. The ambience of the stage is cool with fading blue, purple, and white spotlight colors. The silhouette of the audience is in the foreground.

I echo this sentiment: Graduate students can start getting involved with the publishing/editorial process while still in their program. My editing experience started as a guest co-editor for a journal special issue during my 2nd year in PhD coursework.

Dori Coblentz believes that framing “authentic” (pure) writing as most desirable can perpetuate ableism that marginalizes or even harms students who need assistive technologies to compose. There’s friction between responsibility and disability. Transparency and documentation aren’t neutral. #4c26

Moinak Choudhury observes a “systemic shock” brought about by the rapid introduction of AI to higher education and the largely distributed approach to policymaking (instructor-driven policies) about AI use in teaching & learning. #4c26

Kathleen Dillon poses excellent respondent questions that challenge us to consider capitalist practices that we enforce in our pedagogy and what we might do differently to be more caring toward our students. In the face of fast tech & productivity demands, how might we slow down thoughtfully? #4c26

Olivia Rowland reminds us that race and racism can be manipulated as technologies of capitalism, and such manipulation finds its way into our pedagogies when we reproduce capitalist practices of mainstreaming languages and ranking and sorting student performance. #4c26

Márcia Rego compares capitalist mindsets and effects on value & transactions with the commodification of research (its speed, impact) in the name of productivity. Slow is not anti-fast or anti-new. Slow can be resistance. Ethnography, though not unproblematic, can be used to study slowness. #4c26

Angela Glotfelter draws from the Marxist tradition, combined with racial-cultural, feminist, and intersectional critiques/augmentations to create a heuristic for studying capitalist technologies and creating anticapitalist technology design. #4c26
