In this interactive workshop, faculty will explore creative ways to help students build confidence and authenticity in their academic writing. Together, we’ll experiment with found poetry to uncover tone and meaning, elevator pitch one-sentence summaries to sharpen focus and clarity, and model text readings to notice style and voice. Participants will try out these quick, adaptable strategies and discuss how to integrate them into their own courses. You’ll leave with ready-to-use activities and fresh ideas for making academic writing more engaging, empowering, and true to students’ individual voices.
