         Subject: Invitation to attend the Computers and Writing 2005
Conference at Stanford

On behalf of the Program in Writing and Rhetoric at Stanford University, I
am delighted to invite you to attend the fourteenth Computers and Writing
Conference. The conference will take place June 16 through June 19 at
Stanford University in the heart of Silicon Valley.

CW2005 will open with the Graduate Research Network, giving our graduate
student colleagues the opportunity to share their research and explore new
venues for the same. Conference participants have the opportunity to
enroll in pre-conference workshops and discover hands-on, new techniques
for incorporating technology in the classroom. As in past years, we will
feature Town Hall Sessions, led by Judi Kirkpatrick, Darin Payne and John
Zuern who hosted last year's conference in Hawaii. Designed to initiate
discussion and prompt debate, the Town Hall Sessions will then lead us to
daily panel discussions and special features. Andrea Lunsford, who will
deliver the keynote address, has chosen to address the conference theme
directly in her speech "Writing, Technologies, and the Fifth Canon." Our
featured presentations also address the conference theme: The "Sharing
Cultures" team will show us how technology can lead to truly meaningful
experiences in the classroom and how it can make writing matter. Todd
Taylor's prophetic "The End of Composition" will be exploring changing
notions of literacy as a result of changing technologies. Presenters,
including scholars from around the world and the United States, will
discuss a wide range of topics, from computer gaming and its use in the
classroom to the use of technology as a rhetorical choice impacting
arrangement and delivery.

For more information on the conference, special presentations and
pre-conference workshops, please visit our website at

For questions, please contact me at arraez_at_stanford.edu. We look forward
to seeing you at Stanford in June.
