Introducing the Teaching Writers Speak Podcast
Teaching Writers Speak, a new podcast produced by members of the Toronto Writing Project (www.torontowritingproject.com), launched back in March and is hosted by our very own Ty Walkland. Teaching Writers Speak is for educators, researchers, and creative folks like us who view writing as a vehicle for change, both in our institutions and in the world at large. Ty chats with teachers, professors, community educators, and researchers so that we can all better support one another as teachers of writing, our students as writers, and our work as scholars in the field of critical literacy.
The first conversation was with Dr. Elizabeth Dutro, featured in our last blog post, whose work investigates literacy education within high-poverty classrooms and the school reading and writing accountability policies that impact those experiences.
The remainder of the first season finds Emmanuel Tabi, Antero Garcia, Nicole Mirra, and others joining Ty to share insights into their literacy research and offer a view of their own writing practices in and outside the classroom.
