EDUC 218 Writing for Teachers

An advanced writing education course designed to assist students begin to switch their focus from self-as-student to self-as-writing teacher. We will explore and learn that to teach writing, we must write. We will do this through reading; discussing accounts by professional writers, student writers, teachers of writing and writing researchers; exploring the teaching of writing in the classroom; creating a community of writers where we write and respond to each others' writing; understanding the importance of reading and writing and that to teach both we must be active readers and writers; experiencing an environment created around the social construction of knowledge; and integrating content knowledge from the various liberal arts disciplines that are the foundation of our knowledge.
