Writing Across the Curriculum
A trained faculty member should dedicate at least 3-5 instructional hours per Writing Across the Curriculum Major Writing Objective. (See definition of “instructional hours” in COE handbook). If multiple objectives appear in the same course, it is permissible that some of these instructional hours may overlap.
A trained faculty member will incorporate at least two helpful interventions (conferencing, librarian visit, tutoring, peer collaboration, professor comments on ungraded drafts, etc.) in the writing processes in at least one assignment that meets the requirements of the objective being addressed
Faculty are encouraged to connect with liaison librarians and the information literacy menu to meet the information literacy course learning objective in the Writing in the Major parameter.
