More about the UCI Writing Project...
The UCIWP has trained 700 teacher/consultants from 85 local school districts and twelve colleges and universities. Additionally, the project has trained 675 teachers in its open program on Reading, Writing, and Critical Thinking, and 600 teachers in the Governor's Professional Development Institutes.
The project has reached over 20,000 teachers via conferences and inservice programs. We were the first CWP site to create a summer youth program, which has grown from 35 students and 2 teachers in 1984 to 1900 students and 280 teachers in 2007.
We're currently working on this very website, which will be expanded in Spring or Summer, 2008.
