The 2026 Novel Ideas English Language Arts Conference offers educators a chance to reignite their passion for teaching and infuse new energy into their language arts programs.

Together, we’ll explore innovative approaches to literature, writing, and language instruction. Participants will discover dynamic, research-informed strategies that deepen engagement, spark critical thinking, and nurture creative expression. From thoughtfully examining the implications of emerging technologies to exploring how our learning environments shape understanding, this conference will provide fresh, practical ideas that empower teachers to revitalize their practice and inspire the next generation of readers and writers.

In a time marked by uncertainty and volatility, let’s gather to reaffirm our agency, strengthen our connections, and recharge—together.
