Attending Computers and Writing 2026? Be a Session Reviewer!
The Sweetland Digital Rhetoric Collaborative is seeking reviewers for the 2026 Computers and Writing Conference (June 4-7). We are particularly interested in conference reviews pertaining to digital rhetoric, multimodal pedagogical approaches, and AI; though you are welcome to propose your own session to review. Reviews are published on the DRC website to help facilitate conversations about conference sessions among attendees and others who may have not been present at the conference.
If you would like to be a session reviewer, please visit this Google Spreadsheet to sign up for a session to review. You will be asked to provide information about the session and a short bio for yourself.
Reviews can be composed in written text (500-1200 words) or in any other appropriate media as long as the information can be received by a user in 3-5 minutes. Your review should include a brief overview of the session but should also address key implications, stakes, or take-away points. Please also make sure that if you offer relevant critique in your review, you do so in a collegial and constructive manner. We may edit received reviews or send reviews back for revision, if necessary. Feel free to browse the previous reviews for models as you compose yours.
