Axis: the Praxis blog

What happens when we write? Why do we teach writing the way we do? How does writing education engage with questions of race, gender, accessibility, and cultural difference? How does the writing center function as an interdisciplinary space?

Axis extends the writing center conversation from Praxis, our peer reviewed scholarly journal, into a public forum. Exploratory, experimental, and informative, the blog speaks to questions on the cutting edge of writing center theory and practice. Axis features writing from undergraduate and graduate educators at the University of Texas at Austin, and guest writers from universities across the United States.

17.2 Language and Learning in the Writing Center Title Card

We here at Praxis are so proud and happy to present you all with our Spring 2020 issue!

17.2: Language & Learning in the Writing Center

As always, you can read the whole issue in PDF and individual articles here on our website.

The Spring 2020 semester has been an unprecedented one in many ways, on all of our campuses. We are so grateful for the hard work of our reviewers, copy-editors, authors, and the staff of the University Writing Center at UT-Austin and UT Library Services who have made it possible to continue publishing, even in these times. All of us are in the midst of uncertainty and change in our workplaces, as are the students we serve. We here at Praxis are glad to be among such good company as we navigate those changes, and we hope we can be a part of continuing the conversations about them.

We will be back this summer, both with our Summer 2020 issue and a new series of Axis blog posts, so stay tuned and stay safe!
