I’ve put together a panel called “Creative Coding for Creative Writing: Digital Tools in the Poetry Classroom” with Lai-Tse Fan, Lillian-Yvonne Bertram, Doug Luman, and Keith S. Wilson. Come by if you’re in Seattle! Here’s the panel description:
Computational and digital poetry tools are increasingly accessible and easy to use, and offer exciting ways to help students compose new work, revise thoughtfully, and hone their sense of purpose as writers. This panel considers the merits of creative coding and other digital practices in poetry classrooms from MFA workshops to undergraduate surveys to high school enrichment programs. We’ll share our experiences using open-source, free, and fun tools to support specific pedagogical goals.
