The Southeastern Writing Center Association (SWCA) Webinar Committee was formed to offer synchronous, online webinars for those interested in topics related to writing center pedagogy and operations.  The webinar committee currently consists of the following members:

• Deidre Garriott (Committee Chair), University of South Carolina
• Maegan Mercer-Bourne, Wake Technical Community College
• Billie Jo Dunaway, Daytona State College
• Candis Bond, Augusta University
• Joy Bracewell, Athens State University
• Eric Mason, Nova Southeastern University

The SWCA webinar committee invites proposals for webinars on topics that would interest a variety of our organization's membership, including writing tutors (professional, peer, and graduate), administrators, and members.

You may propose a 60-minute webinar of your own design. The SWCA will provide the Zoom platform and marketing for the event. We will record all events to post for members to consult later.

Possible topics may include (but are not limited to):

• Representing Writing Center consulting (WCC) work on CVs/resumes and university reports
• English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL)
• Writing in the Disciplines
• Multimodal Project Consulting
• Engaging Students in Tutoring Sessions
• How to Tutor Ethics and Critical Thinking
• How to Decolonize or create more Socially and Racially-Just Centers

Workshopping opportunities are available for applicants who may appreciate feedback before submission. Additionally, the committee also offers partnering opportunities for potential presenters who are seeking collaborators. Contact webinar committee chair Deidre Garriott for more information.
