What does the WAC Network Offer?
The WAC Network is a network of peers striving to
become better instructors of writing and dedicated to supporting other faculty
and librarians across campus in their efforts to integrate writing into their
pedagogy. More specifically, members of the WAC Network can:
Ø
share resources with you related to the teaching of writing
Ø
engage in conversation with you about teaching with writing
Ø
brainstorm with you as you pull together writing-intensive syllabi
or writing assignments
The WAC Network provides this support in two ways.
First, members of the WAC Network lead biweekly WAC Discussion Groups, which
focus on specific areas of writing pedagogy. The WAC Discussion Groups are
open to the entire campus community. Second, the Network members welcome informal discussions with faculty and
librarians from across campus on issues related to the teaching of writing. The
members are not experts in the teaching of writing, but are peers who have tried
a few approaches in their own classrooms that they can share, can point the way
to WAC resources, and are willing to lend an ear to peers as they design writing
curricula and try WAC approaches to pedagogy. You are welcome to contact
any WAC Network member to talk about writing
instruction.
