2002...

The on-site Computers and Writing Conference 2002 was held on the Illinois State University campus May 16-19, 2002. Running concurrently with the on-site conference will be an on-line conference.  This site provides information on all aspects of participating in and attending both aspects of the conference.

The conference will explore the ways in which computers are changing how we conceive of and deal with problems of accessibility in writing instruction, especially as these problems hinge on the relationship between the virtual and the physical.  Do we assess writing in virtual space and writing embodied in a physical document differently? How do the modes of virtual access (MOOs, web boards, listservs) pose problems for the uninitiated and how can we address those problems?  How are traditionally disenfranchised students (the physically disabled, the economically disadvantaged) affected by the availability of virtual instruction? These are just a few of the questions that will engage participants through a variety of formal and informal discussions over the four days of the conference.
