Writing-intensive course proposals
The Franklin College Writing-Intensive Program invites proposals
from Arts and Sciences faculty in all disciplines for innovative
courses that encourage writing.
Writing-intensive courses vary across disciplines at UGA,
but all make writing important to the thinking of the course,
give students opportunities to write in low stakes and high
stakes situations, and engage students in conversations about
writing. In general, writing intensive courses should:
• Feature innovative writing assignments that relate
clearly to course learning; teach the communication values
of a discipline, such as its practices of argument, evidence,
credibility and format; and prepare students for further writing
in their academic work, in graduate school and in professional
life.
• Break assignments into parts that teach the process
of effective writing in a field.
• Provide opportunities for planning, feedback and revising.
• Make effective use of Writing-Intensive Program teaching
assistants, and make their resources clear to students.
Submit proposals on WIP course proposal forms by Feb. 28.
Proposal forms can be found on www.english.uga.edu/wip/CFP.html
or from Michelle Ballif, mballif@uga.edu.
Bulletin Board is limited to
announcements from campus-based organizations whose membership
includes UGA faculty and/or staff.Bulletin Board is limited
