This is an introductory first-year writing course where we study writing: how it works, what makes it effective, and how to do it. It is inquiry-driven, process-based, and grounded in the understanding that writing is always socially situated (and writers are, too). We recognize that there is no universal context for writing, academic or otherwise. What constitutes “good” writing in one situation or discipline is different from another one. We know that writing is not a basic skill independent of content or context. Similarly, literacy development does not begin or end with the completion of First-Year Writing, but is spiral and on-going. We also recognize the broad array of composing that 21st century students are required to practice, especially digital and multimodal work that pays attention to audiences that reach far beyond the classroom. I would like students to do research about writing--anti-racist writing assessment, multilingual writing pedagogy, digitial writing etc. and work to update wikipedia article related to writing studies research.
