EMC Authors present at NCTE in Chicago Nov. 18

EMC's Expository Composition authors Gary Anderson and Tony Romano are presenting two sessions at the National Council of Teachers of English convention in Chicago on November 18th.

“Writers Week: A Platform For Building Community”

Friday, November 18, 9:30 AM to 10:45 AM
Session: A.34
Room: Chicago Hilton/Lake Ontario Room, Eighth Floor

Writers Week helps transform two schools into writing communities modeling tolerance and equity as students, faculty, and authors share their inspiring stories. Learn how your school can develop a similar program to generate widespread interest in writing on your campus by featuring writers from your school and hosting author visits.

“Zapping Apathy: Creating A Sense Of Community In English Classes”
Friday, November 18, 2:30 PM to 3:45 PM
Session: D.27
Room: Chicago Hilton/Williford Room B, Third Floor

“This is boring!” Anyone who hasn’t heard that line has probably never been a high school English teacher! We love writing and literature, so why do our students not love them too? Find out about research on engaging students, and strategies guaranteed to zap the apathy in any English class.

Gary and Tony will be signing books Saturday, November 19 from 9:00 a.m. to noon!
