Rethink and Redesign Writing Assignments with One-on-One Support!
Do you want to dive deeply into how you and your colleagues use writing assignments in teaching? If yes, you can work as a group and also get one-on-one support on your writing assignments by joining the Faculty Commons’ Winter Quarter WAC (Writing Across the Curriculum) workshop!
The WAC program at BC promotes the positive impacts of writing on students’ learning by supporting faculty across disciplines in designing assignments. In this quarter-long workshop, you will meet twice as a group on Zoom. Together, we will explore what makes a writing assignment clear, effective, and well-scaffolded, what various writing terminology may be useful to your students, and how to make the best use of what your students have learned in ENGL&101 and ENGL 201 for your writing assignments. After that, you and Jun will work on fine-tuning at least one of your writing assignments.
10 seats maximum: Fill out this registration form including your availability to meet Jan 3-12.
8 PD hours and $200 Stipend for participating in all sessions and submitting assignments.
Please reach out to Jun Xu, WAC Lead, with your questions.
