For those of you who work on women writers and early modernity, please see below for a publication/teaching development opportunity:
 
 
"I’m writing to share a resource that the WWP has recently published and to let you know about an opportunity to work with us as we pilot the development of teaching materials for this new collection. We’ve just published Women Writers in Review (http://wwp.neu.edu/review/) a collection of around 600 reviews, publication notices, and other documents that respond or relate to texts by the authors in Women Writers Online. We’re now inviting expressions of interest from teaching consultants who would work with us to create assignments that use WWiR. We’re planning to develop a sample set of assignments that we can publish on the WWP’s main site and on the WWiR site. Collaborators would have our support in developing assignments and activities and would also be named as pedagogical development consultants for the WWP. For more details on WWiR, please see this announcement: http://wwp.neu.edu/about/announcements.html#review-2016-11-16 

We are also inviting responses from those who would like to develop—or who already have!—assignments and activities involving Women Writers Online for publication on our site. If you don’t have institutional access to WWO and would like to set up a trial (for either yourself or your institution), please contact us. More details on WWO licensing and trials are here: http://wwp.neu.edu/wwo/license/

If you’re interested in getting involved, please email wwp@neu.edu with a brief expression of interest—just a short paragraph on the teaching you’ll be doing in spring 2017 or fall 2017 and some initial thoughts on how you’d like to use the WWiR or WWO collections. The deadline for submissions will be December 31, 2016. Please feel free to share this invitation with anyone you know who might be interested. 

 
And, for one final note, we will be holding several workshops this spring if you're interested in doing more work with TEI. Details on these are here: http://wwp.neu.edu/outreach/seminars/

If you have any questions about this program, or the WWiR site itself, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We hope you enjoy the collection!

All my best,

Sarah
