Fall 2021 Scholarly Writing Accountability Groups (SWAG)
Fall 2021 Scholarly Writing Accountability Groups (SWAG)
A Scholarly Writing Accountability Group (SWAG) is an active peer-led writing group for TU faculty that meets for 90-minutes, once a week over a 10-week period. Groups follow a structured agenda including 15 minutes of updates and goal-setting followed by 60 minutes of individual writing and then 15 minutes of reporting and wrap-up. Each group is limited to 10-12 members who commit to attending at least 8 out of the 10 weekly sessions. In a SWAG, there is no peer review of writing; SWAGs focus on the process of writing, not the content. SWAG members support one another to write with increased frequency and develop a sustainable writing habit. This fall, we are answering the call to provide SWAGs that are differentiated by college and discipline.
