Welcome!
We are a team of researchers and teachers-scholars who study writing and the teaching of writing in academic settings. Our interdisciplinary team has expertise in applied linguistics, second language studies, writing program administration, and technical communication. Crow team-members work at the University of Arizona, Purdue University, UMass Boston, North Carolina State University, Northern Arizona University and Old Dominion University.
Since 2016, we have been working together to share Crow, the Corpus and Repository of Writing—an open science project (open data, open source and open pedagogical resources) digital platform that integrates a corpus of undergraduate student writing and a repository of teaching materials from three universities. Our commitment to open science is embodied in the sharing of the source code and tools for building your own corpora on GitHub, Corpus-in-a-Box (CIABATTA), which you can use to compile your own corpora and share it with the world using our interface. We also share and research how to work collaboratively across institutions through constructive distributed work model (CDW).
