Indiana Writing Project
THE INDIANA WRITING PROJECT, based at Ball State University, is an organization committed to promoting the best possible writing instruction in Indiana's elementary, secondary, and post-secondary schools. IWP offers a number of professional development programs by and for teachers.
The Indiana Writing Project, founded in 1986, was Indiana's first affiliate of the National Writing Project. Currently there are six National Writing Project affiliates in Indiana, forming the Indiana Network.
In February 2008, both houses of the Indiana legislature passed a resolution commending the Indiana Writing Project for our work in improving student performance in writing.
Invitational Summer Institute
IWP celebrates the completion of the 2011 Invitational Summer Institute as we welcome a new group of Teaching Consultants into our community. In 2012, IWP will offer its twenty-seventh Invitational Summer Institute, drawing teachers of writing from across the state.
