Description:	This case study describes a co-designed writing retreat designed to support students with the synthesis of theory and practice through writing. It models decentring power by switching from transmission to a dialogic pedagogy. It offers a six-step model to develop metacognition, critical thinking and analysis as part of assessment practices. Promoted in the chapter are free writing and peer review to co-create meaning. We recommend writing retreats to develop writing and written discourse.
