Context--The National Writing Project
With some 200 sites based at colleges and universities in all fifty states, the NWP represents one of the most successful federal investments of all time in helping good teachers to nurture student engagement, curiosity, and authentic learning. More than ninety percent of all NWP participants rank at the highest quality their impression of the professional development they experienced as a result of NWP programs.
NWP offers immense resources for teachers at all levels and in all subject areas--from conferences, to web resources, to personnel, to ample networking opportunities, and beyond.
Seven other NWP sites exist in Georgia, at University of West Georgia, at Georgia Southern University, at Valdosta State University, at Kennesaw State University, at Georgia Southwestern, at Armstrong Atlantic University, and at the University of Georgia.
