IWT and the Bard MAT Program

The Institute for Writing and Thinking at Bard College has trained thousands of teachers to rethink and re-imagine their classroom writing practices. This year, IWT offers workshops at Bard MAT Program sites in California and New York City.

In California, the Institute is offering workshops on the Delano campus of the Bard MAT Program, located at Paramount Bard Academy, a charter school for students from communities in California’s Central Valley. Institute faculty will lead one-day, weekend, and week-long workshops open to public school teachers throughout California’s Central Valley.   

In New York City, the Institute is collaborating with the Bard MAT Program to offer a series of one-day Writing and Thinking and Writing to Read workshops at International Community High School in the Bronx. The workshops are offered for New York City public school teachers only.
