Dear colleagues,
We are excited to announce the next annual Summer Seminar for Writing Research, June 8-20, 2025.
“The Summer Seminar was one of the most rewarding professional experiences of my career.” (previous participant)
The 2025 Dartmouth Summer Seminar for Writing Research is designed for writing faculty from all types of higher education venues and contexts who are beginning to work on data-driven research about writing in a variety of higher education contexts, and who would like an intensive, high-powered two weeks to work on that research, review approaches and methods, consult directly with experts, and network long-term with a cohort of other researchers from around the world. Guided interaction about participants’ projects is offered in the months leading up to the Seminar. The Seminar itself offers a quiet, resource-rich environment, coursework, small-group discussion and exchange, individual consultation with Seminar leaders, time to work alone or in groups on research projects, and a concluding presentation to the group with feedback from team leaders.
We encourage both individuals and research groups or teams to apply.
A description of the Summer Seminar for Writing Research can be accessed at https://sites.dartmouth.edu/writing-research-seminar/. The application form will be available by November 10th on this site.
The location for the Seminar, which will no longer be at the Dartmouth campus, will be announced soon as well.
We look forward to reading your applications, which will be due December 31, 2024. Don’t hesitate to write with any questions: composition.research.seminar

Tiane Donahue, for the Summer Seminar team
