16th Annual Boise State Writing Project
The Boise State Writing Project is a subsidiary of the National Writing Project and sponsored by Boise State University. The project is dedicated to the improvement of literacy instruction in our nation’s schools through the means of composition, because it is a unique and powerful way of learning and knowing in all curricular areas and at all grade levels. The idea is that teachers are professionals who must practice what they teach and therefore, should be paid for their expertise. The project is also dedicated to fostering an interdisciplinary community and support system of teachers from all grade levels and across the curriculum.
