CFP for NeMLA 2026 roundtable "Regenerating Technical Communication: Creative Pedagogies & Practices": cfplist.com/nemla/Home/S...

Abstract deadline is tonight (Sep 30)! Feel free to reach out directly if interested too. #RhetComp #TechComm #TeamRhetoric #Pedagogy
Technical communication, as a field of practice and study, has grown larger and more varied in response to the rapidly developing technologies, new forms of globalization, and shifting institutional demands of the past 20 years—all greatly intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic within the last five. How do instructors of technical communication, in 2025–2026, meet the current moment as well as contemporary student needs? This roundtable calls for creative and innovative approaches to the teaching of technical communication. Following the conference theme of “regeneration,” the session invites presentations that share pedagogical frameworks and/or strategies that critically innovate, expand, or reframe what students may think of as the “traditional” technical communication classroom and its stereotypes of “dull, document-based” work (Bridgeford, Kitalong & Selfe 2). Approaches related to social justice, community engagement, and/or feminist pedagogy, as well as experiential teaching practices such as project-based learning and arts-based pedagogy, are particularly welcome.
