Something I'm thinking about saying at my NCTE talk later this week: We should focus on teaching writing, not automation-assisted document production.

Feeling GRATEFUL for #NCTE24. As we look ahead to #NCTE25, I am thinking that "RADICAL OPTIMISM" might be an interesting mindset to adopt as a form of resistance, self-care, and more. Yes, let's DREAM and make those dreams come true. Already looking forward to your sessions!

At #NCTE24, some of us had the great pleasure to see & to hear both Tracy K. Smith & Ada Limon. Both poet laureates spoke about Emily Dickinson & her influence on them. As we move toward the next year also toward #NCTE25, let's remember Dickinson's words that we CAN "dwell in possibility."

Yes, the app is probably easier, but ... you can add #NCTE24 sessions to your Google or Outlook calendar by searching for and opening the desired session in the NCTE searchable schedule at s1.goeshow.com/ncte/annual/...; then clicking the icon for Google or Outlook (lower right in image below).
