You can take advantage of Life's Urban Images opportunities by signing up for our two workshops:
Creative Writing across the Content Area Workshop and
Writing across the Content Area Workshop. 

The Creative Writing across the Content Area Workshop is a workshop for teachers who wish to study patterns and form.  What are some of the universal forms, patterns or outlines used to define the creative writing process?  How can this information be used to encourage writing in the classroom and amongst creative individuals?  We will discuss and study fiction, poetry songwriting/lyrics, art and text, and science fiction.  Teachers/education professionals will come to understand how students can participate in the creative process while studying a variety of subjects.  After taking this workshop teachers/education professionals will be encouraged to include this information in their classroom curriculum.  This is a five day, online workshop.  Teachers in the state of Illinois and the state of Georgia receive state approved credit.  The cost is $450.  Please enroll by completing the registration form (See the "Registration" page).

Writing across the Content Area Workshop is a workshop for the study of essay writing.  Teachers of literature, science, art, social studies and more will see how essay writing can be universally applied to enhance student development.  Teachers will want to add essay writing to the curriculum.  This is a two day, online workshop.  Teachers in the state of Illinois and the state of Georgia receive state approved credit.  The cost is $250.  Please enroll by completing the registration form (See the "Registration" page).
