English 2180 Skeleton Syllabus And Sample Assignment, Jennifer Andersen

Q2S Enhancing Pedagogy

Approaches that I consider to teaching English 2180: the Function of Stories, include:

1) Legal Argumentation as Story-telling: the role of stories in jurisprudence

2) Philosophical explorations into cognitive and affective benefits from fiction

3) Socio-historical arguments about the rise of the novel

4) Fiction as cautionary tales for maturing adolescents

5) Psychological benefits: storytelling as a source of analogues for subjective experience

Building Student Agency Through Contract Grading In Technical Communication, Jennifer C. Mallette, Amanda Hawks

English Literature Faculty Publications and Presentations

The scholarship on contract grading has focused on the impacts in first-year writing, but little work explores how contract grading is used in other writing contexts, specifically technical communication. In fact, a focus on contract grading can align with the social justice turn in technical communication if viewed as a way to enact feminist and antiracist pedagogies. In this reflection, we--an instructor of an introductory technical communication service course and a student who took that class--share our experiences around contract grading. After providing an overview of the course and institutional context, we reflect together on our experiences around student perceptions …

“What Do I Think Of Glory?”: On Middlemarch By George Eliot, Beverley Park Rilett

Department of English: Faculty Publications

What do I think of Middlemarch? What do I think of glory?”1 This is the famous reply Emily Dickinson wrote to her bookish cousins in 1873 after her first reading of George Eliot’s novel. Dickinson’s sentiments were also my own when I completed my first reading of Middlemarch (1871–1872), about thirty-five years ago. Middlemarch is the book that made me realize literature could be more than a source of entertainment, that it could be Art with a capital A. Here was a text with fascinating and seemingly limitless possibilities for interpretation that would continue to reward scrutiny. Of course, …
