ENG 0670 - Social Change and Writing Centers



Credits: 0

Description: Students explore how writing centers can function to promote social change or to reinforce the status quo. Students study how writing centers can both empower and oppress. Students conduct ethnographic research in writing centers, examining how race, sex, gender, sexual orientation, language, disability, and other aspects of identity come into play in writing tutoring and writing center pedagogy. Students study and apply theories and methods from literacy studies, disability studies, and composition studies. This is a no-credit option for students hired to work in the Writing Center.
