Notebooks: Making Space for Thought

In our techno-forward age, it’s easy to overlook the notebook as a radical technology that has long shaped not only writing, but also reading, thinking, and self-knowledge. But in the era of AI, the notebook can be a sanctuary for humanistic learning. Notebooks offer a provisional, experimental, self-reflective space where we can respond to texts, try out ideas, ask questions, and engage in productive play before we make our thoughts public. In this workshop, we will look at notebooks (and sketchbooks) and explore ways we can use them in our classrooms to re-enchant the writing process—helping students sharpen their reading and analytic skills, think with each other, and move toward more authentic, embodied authorship in their formal writing.
