🎯📘 Strong academic writing courses don’t start with activities. They start with clear goals.
Backward design helps teachers plan writing instruction by first identifying what students should be able to do, then designing assessments and learning activities that support those goals.
If you’re interested in designing academic writing courses that truly meet your students’ needs, the Teaching English Academic Writing to Speakers of Other Languages (TEAW) MOOC is a great place to start 🚀

🗓️ Enrollment opens July 13 and closes September 28
👉 Register here: https://www.openenglishprograms.org/MOOC
