LitSIG NEWSLiverpool 2019 PCE
Joint PCE - Literature and Materials Writing SGIs:
Creative Arts and Materials Writing 1st April 2019 Most teachers who use texts taken from the arts – be they literary, visual or musical – create activities to accompany them, and many of these teachers create materials for publication, or would like to know more about how to do this. Similarly, professional materials writers often incorporate creative materials into their publications, or would like to explore how to do so. This joint event is, therefore, a marvellous opportunity to share expertise and experience.
