Workshop | Textbook Authoring Basics: A Holistic Approach
What previous participants have said about Christopherson's workshop: Robert W. Christopherson is Professor Emeritus of Geography, American River College (1970-2000). He is the author of the leading physical geography texts in the US and Canada all published by Pearson Prentice Hall. He and his nature photographer wife Bobbe have completed twelve expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctic regions since 2003 gathering information and photos for his books, Geosystems, 8/e, Elemental Geosystems, 7/e, Geosystems Canadian Edition, 3/e, and Applied Physical Geography, 8/e. He joined TAA in 1989. TAA can help your faculty move from writing to publication by sponsoring an expert-led workshop in textbook and academic writing at your institution. TAA's sponsorship covers the majority of the cost of bringing the presenter to your institution, including speaker fees and travel costs. The host institution is responsible for a fee of $1,950, which includes up to 125 TAA faculty memberships, available to faculty whether or not they attend the workshop. TAA provides an online institutional membership application process which makes joining TAA easy for both the institution and faculty. These workshops are offered on a first-come first-serve basis until program funding has been exhausted. To schedule this workshop, please contact Robert Christopherson directly: [email protected] |
