    Description

    This seminar will focus on Critical Discourse Studies-also known as
    Critical Discourse Analysis, or CDA-as a theory/method in
    Communication, and more specifically on the opportunities it
    presents for scholars throughout our discipline to engage in social
    justice-oriented research and pedagogy. Our primary goal is to
    create space for collaboration among communication scholars as we
    discuss theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical issues related
    to Critical Discourse Studies, as well as the opportunities that
    this approach presents for ongoing studies of different
    practices/artifacts/texts across NCA's interest groups.

    Requirements

    We invite submissions for both roundtables and workshops.

    For those  interested in participating in the roundtables: please
    send a short position paper (7-10 pages) to Susana Martínez Guillem
    ((susanam /at/ unm.edu) <mailto:(susanam /at/ unm.edu)>) and Christopher Michael
    Toula ((ctoula1 /at/ mygsu.onmicrosoft.com)
    <mailto:(ctoula1 /at/ mygsu.onmicrosoft.com)>) focusing on "Critical
    Discourse Studies' Theoretical Legacies and Futures in Communication
    Studies," or "Methodological and Pedagogical Considerations for
    Critical Discourse Studies in/across Communication Areas." Please
    indicate the roundtable that best fits your proposal. Your email
    subject heading should read NCA SEMINAR APPLICATION and your
    submission should include your name, title, institution, and email
    address at the top.

    Those interested in participating in the workshops: please send a
    short description of your text(s) (1000 words maximum) to Susana
    Martínez Guillem ((susanam /at/ unm.edu) <mailto:(susanam /at/ unm.edu)>) and
    Christopher Michael Toula ((ctoula1 /at/ mygsu.onmicrosoft.com)
    <mailto:(ctoula1 /at/ mygsu.onmicrosoft.com)>), and briefly discuss the
    initial questions you are trying to tackle in your analysis. The
    questions should be open-ended to allow for flee-floating feedback
    and discussion.  Your email subject heading should read NCA SEMINAR
    APPLICATION and your submission should include your name, title,
    institution, and email address at the top.

    The final number and focus of the workshops will depend on the
    number and quality of the submissions, as well as the overarching
    themes emerging out of the proposals.

    The deadline to submit all materials is October 1, 2015. This is an
    exciting opportunity to learn about nuances within CDS, discuss
    ongoing and potential research applications in different
    communication areas, and engage in hands-on analysis of your own
    texts with immediate feedback to help you move your project forward.
    Hope to see many of you there!
