What WAC Offers Faculty

The WAC Coordinator offers the following resources to the BSU community:

  • One-to-one meetings with instructors to discuss any aspect of teaching with writing such as using writing activities to promote learning and critical thinking; responding to student writing; helping students learn the ways of writing preferred in their major discipline; and designing assignments, writing assessment tools, and facilitating writing workshops in your classroom.
  • Workshops on aspects of teaching with writing that are open to both full-time and part-time faculty.
  • Resources such as handouts and books on different aspects of teaching with writing, as well as the resources made available through this website.
  • The WAC Network, which is a group of faculty and librarians who are dedicated to supporting the teaching of writing on campus.  The members of this Network receive specialized training in WAC pedagogy and then share their knowledge about teaching with writing through WAC Discussion Group meetings and informal meetings and discussions with colleagues across campus.
  • Support for faculty writing through the BSU Community of Writers program, a WAC/CART collaboration that offers a colloquia series on topics related to writing and publication.
  • Support for graduate writing through the Graduate Writing Fellows programs, a WAC/Graduate School collaboration that works with graduate programs to organize a peer-to-peer writing support program for their students.

To schedule a meeting or workshop, please contact Michelle Cox, the WAC Coordinator, at (508) 531-2183 or michelle.cox@bridgew.edu.
