SUMMARY:English Faculty Lunch and Learn
DESCRIPTION:English Program Lunch and Learn\nThursday\, April 2\, 2026\n12:00 – 1:00 Katz library and on Zoom \n\nPlease bring your lunch and join us to hear about our English Faculty’s new research. This panel features three exciting areas of inquiry: \nJessica Winck: Schooling as Constraint in Self-Help Books on Writing\nDescription: Self-help books on writing consistently portray formal education as a negative influence on learning\, writing\, and creativity. In this brief talk\, I explore this portrayal and its possible lessons for the teaching of writing in higher education. \nKay Retzlaff: Laughing on the Inside: Satire\, Status\, and the Irish in the Nineteenth-century US\nHistorian of Irish America Charles Fanning argues that satire is the result of a profound Irish habit of mind\, especially pre-Irish Famine\, which was overwritten by the Famine. His interpretation of why overly simplifies a complex series of events. Fanning overlooked the eras of the various immigrations as well as the gender and class of the immigrants themselves. \nNoel Tague: “The OG Chatbot: Automated Writing as a Foundation for Critical AI Literacy.”\nDescription: Many writing instructors struggle with how to teach AI and writing in ways that align with pedagogical principles\, best practices\, and beliefs in what writing is for. In this presentation\, I offer a foundation for critical AI literacy in the classroom in a lesson plan on automated writing.
