Co-Constructing Writing Knowledge: Students’ Collaborative Talk Across Contexts, Misty Anne Winzenried, Lillian Campbell, Roger Chao, Alison Cardinal
Co-Constructing Writing Knowledge: Students’ Collaborative Talk Across Contexts, Misty Anne Winzenried, Lillian Campbell, Roger Chao, Alison Cardinal
English Faculty Research and Publications
Although compositionists recognize that student talk plays an important role in learning to write, there is limited understanding of how students use conversational moves to collaboratively build knowledge about writing across contexts. This article reports on a study of focus group conversations involving first-year students in a cohort program. Our analysis identified two patterns of group conversation among students: “co-telling” and “co-constructing,” with the latter leading to more complex writing knowledge. We also used Beaufort’s domains of writing knowledge to examine how co-constructing conversations supported students in abstracting knowledge beyond a single classroom context and in negotiating local constraints. Our …

Intuition In Healthcare Communication Practices: Initial Findings From A Qualitative Inquiry, Elizabeth L. Angeli, Lillian Campbell
Intuition In Healthcare Communication Practices: Initial Findings From A Qualitative Inquiry, Elizabeth L. Angeli, Lillian Campbell
English Faculty Research and Publications
This brief paper reports on how healthcare providers negotiate stages of care and communication by using intuition. This focus shifts attention away from the product-patient records-and towards the process of medical communication. To support this claim, the paper presents preliminary findings from qualitative analysis of two individual ethnographic research projects with live-action clinical nursing simulations and emergency medical services. Using a grounded theory analysis that identified intuitive moments in the writing practices of healthcare providers, this brief paper demonstrates how intuition manifests in all five stages of care-anticipate, assess, plan, act and reassess, and document-and grounds medical assessment and decision …
Writing Up: How Assertions Of Epistemic Rights Counter Epistemic Injustice, Beth Godbee
Writing Up: How Assertions Of Epistemic Rights Counter Epistemic Injustice, Beth Godbee
English Faculty Research and Publications
This article sheds light on moments when educators affirm and when writers assert their epistemic rights— the rights to knowledge, experience, and earned expertise. Affirmations and assertions of epistemic rights can work to counter epistemic injustice, or harm done to people in their capacities as knowers. Though an understanding of rhetoric as "epistemic" or "epistemological" is not new (e.g., Berlin; Dowst; Scott; Villanueva), I argue that we need to bring attention to the related terms and conceptual frameworks of epistemic rights and epistemic injustice. Together, these terms help to explain the wrongs (micro-inequities leading to macro-injustices) that manifest when writers …

Name It And Claim It: Cross-Campus Collaborations For Community-Based Learning, Beth Godbee, Elizabeth Andrejasich Gibes
Name It And Claim It: Cross-Campus Collaborations For Community-Based Learning, Beth Godbee, Elizabeth Andrejasich Gibes
English Faculty Research and Publications
This article describes the value of cross-campus collaborations for community-based learning. We argue that community-based learning both provides unique opportunities for breaking academic silos and invites campus partnerships to make ambitious projects possible. To illustrate, we describe a course "Writing for Social Justice" that involved created videos for our local YWCA's Racial Justice Program. We begin by discussing the shared value of collaboration across writing studies and librarianship (our disciplinary orientations). We identify four forms of cross-campus collaboration, which engaged us in working with each other, with our community partner, and with other partners across campus. From there, we visualize …
Unless Someone Like You Cares A Whole Awful Lot: Apocalypse As Children’S Entertainment, Gerry Canavan
Unless Someone Like You Cares A Whole Awful Lot: Apocalypse As Children’S Entertainment, Gerry Canavan
English Faculty Research and Publications
This article explores an unusual subset of children’s narrative, the apocalyptic environmentalist text, and argues that such texts perform the perverse ideological work of shifting blame for ecological crisis from its perpetrators (the parents’ generation) to its victims (the child who is now called upon to act). These texts transform the drama of innocence and experience that is paradigmatic of children’s narrative by destroying the child’s innocence through their very transmission, by informing them of a dire crisis they then become obliged to repair. The article’s primary examples are Captain Planet, The Lorax, WALL-E and The Butter Battle …

The Rhetoric Of Health And Medicine As A “Teaching Subject”: Lessons From The Medical Humanities And Simulation Pedagogy, Lillian Campbell
The Rhetoric Of Health And Medicine As A “Teaching Subject”: Lessons From The Medical Humanities And Simulation Pedagogy, Lillian Campbell
English Faculty Research and Publications
The rhetoric of health and medicine has only begun to intervene in health pedagogy. In contrast, the medical humanities has spearheaded curriculum to address dehumanizing trends in medicine. This article argues that rhetorical scholars can align with medical humanities’ initiatives and uniquely contribute to health curriculum. Drawing on the author’s research on clinical simulation, the article discusses rhetorical methodologies, genre theory, and critical lenses as areas for pedagogical collaboration between rhetoricians and health practitioners.

Hokey Religions: Star Wars And Star Trek In The Age Of Reboots, Gerry Canavan
English Faculty Research and Publications
Disney’s recent “decanonization” of the decades-old Star Wars “Expanded Universe” in preparation for the release of The Force Awakens once again raises the question of the triangular relationship between the corporate ownership of intellectual property, the mainstream audience to whom the blockbuster films are addressed, and the much smaller hardcore fanbase whose loyalty sustains a franchise during its lean years. Considering fandom investment in the processes of world-building and continuity construction across the landscape of SF media forms, this article will focus specifically on two key franchises in mainstream SF, each in its own way paradigmatic of the “merely” science …

Simulation Genres And Student Uptake: The Patient Health Record In Clinical Nursing Simulations, Lillian Campbell
Simulation Genres And Student Uptake: The Patient Health Record In Clinical Nursing Simulations, Lillian Campbell
English Faculty Research and Publications
Drawing on fieldwork, this article examines nursing students’ design and use of a patient health record during clinical simulations, where small teams of students provide nursing care for a robotic patient. The student-designed patient health record provides a compelling example of how simulation genres can both authentically coordinate action within a classroom simulation and support professional genre uptake. First, the range of rhetorical choices available to students in designing their simulation health records are discussed. Then, the article draws on an extended example of how student uptake of the patient health record within a clinical simulation emphasized its intertextual relationship …
