ENGCMP 0620 - THEORIES OF WRITING AND TEACHING


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course explores theoretical and practical questions regarding how we understand the practice of writing and how we teach it. Thus the goal of the course will be for students to engage various debates regarding literacy theories and experiment with different approaches to literacy instruction. The work of the class will be analytical, inventive, and experimental, as students will have the opportunity not only to study literacy theories and pedagogues but also to create imaginative responses to these theories by considering how teachers might translate theoretical understandings about literacy into classroom practice.
