Literature-Based Pedagogy In The Composition Classroom, Emily F. Sammons

In a world of multicultural communication, traditional literature gets pushed aside in favor of the most innovative way to teach students writing skills across an array of curriculums.

Knowing Thyself: Getting Students To Dig Deep In Personal Narrative Essays, Eric Grunwald

Student Success in Writing Conference (1999-2021)

The personal narrative essay is an excellent assignment for an expository writing course, but students do not always explore themselves deeply. A modifed version of Elbow’s layered freewriting that pushes students toward uncomfortable emotions in selecting topics facilitates that. In this session, after receiving a quick review of the pedagogical underpinnings of the practice, summaries of student feedback, and brief samples of student work, participants will engage in the same process of topic selection that students did to experience it for themselves. The importance of mid-process peer and instructor feedback will also be discussed, and handouts on all these aspects …

Empower And Engage Students In The Pre-Writing Process Through Mental Mapping For Increased Contextual Understanding And Self-Directed Research, Wendy Doucette

Student Success in Writing Conference (1999-2021)

As instructors, we want our students to become successful critical thinkers who are able to internalize and interpret complex and often conficting information. The often-overlooked strategy of mental mapping empowers students to make connections between concepts, ideas, and arguments in a way that is visual, organic, and self-directed. This scafolded learning process increases contextual understanding and helps to organize thinking by making planning visible. Attendees will learn diferent types of mapping (no software required)—which aid students in developing writing topics and academic arguments—and will be able to incorporate them in their teaching.

Teaching “The Essay” As A Pathway To Research And First-Year Writing, Laura M. Martin, James A. Anderson Jr.

Student Success in Writing Conference (1999-2021)

This session will guide attendees through teaching “the essay,” as a flexible, adaptable, customizable form. Using ignorance as a starting place, students develop research strategies that focus on their own gaps in knowledge—as opposed to relying on pre-existing certainty, bias, or opinions. By working through the essay-writing process as an exploration, students develop “high-quality ignorance,” which allows for deeper authenticity. Complex essays allow students to combine multiple rhetorical strategies—narrative, interview, immersion, argument—creating customized essays, instead of following a traditional five-paragraph format. Along the path to the final essay, they alternate writing and research, showing their inextricable connection.

Where the curious instructor can fnd micro-games, which can be played in one or two classes, is included, as well as support for developing new games to highlight contemporary issues.

Student Success in Writing Conference (1999-2021)

With growing numbers of nontraditional students, students of color, and frst-generation students enrolling in colleges and universities, it is imperative to equip FYW instructors with tools to promote student success and retention. To increase retention in a post-COVID era, this panel proposes four “cornerstones” for twoyear and four-year college faculty to adopt in writing classrooms: the use of high-impact practices (HIPS) of course themes, recursive rhetorical practices, inclusive assignment design, and translanguaging. In this session, the presenters will lead participants through activities that highlight how the cornerstones contribute to a sense of student belonging, which afects students’ decisions to continue …
