Proceedings of the Computers & Writing Annual Conference, 2023

Computers & Writing 2023 was hosted by the University of California, Davis from Thursday, June 22nd – Sunday, June 25th, 2023. The theme for the conference was To What End? Hybrid Practices for Engagement and Equity. In their call for proposals, the conference directors observed, "The work of compositionists already exists in a “hybrid” space: at the intersection of humanities and social sciences, engaged directly in classrooms but also in learning spaces beyond, blending traditional textual practices with multiple media. As we strive towards social and linguistic justice in our field, we need to explode assumptions about what kinds of practices “belong,” and where a hybridized approach opens up greater possibilities for inclusion in higher education."
