​

Habits of Mind

  • Responsibility is fostered when writers are encouraged to recognize their own role in learning

  • Creativity is fostered when writers are encouraged to represent what they have learned in a variety of ways

​

Key Terms

  • Genre and genre conventions

  • Composing Processes: planning, researching, drafting, sharing and responding, revising, editing, publishing, reflecting

​

FYS Graded Presentations

Be sure to upload your presentation slides to the Blackboard Discussion forum: FYS Slides! 

​

Please be aware that the credit for FYS is dependent on you actually attending and presenting at FYS!

  • This does count in History, Seminar, and Writing & Rhetoric!

Final Reflective Overview

For the Final RO, this will be counting in History, Seminar, of course, Writing & Rhetoric. 

​

I have posted the Final RO template in Blackboard> Readings & Templates> Final RO template. 

  • Be sure to note how to put together the RO based on the directions on the template. 

  • For the SLO's from Writing & Rhetoric, focus on pieces of evidences from Writing. For the SLO's from History, use pieces of evidences from History and/or Seminar. 

    • Think: lecture supplements, lecture notes, quizzes, exam prep, exams, etc. ​

​

  • I have also drafted a rubric for the Final Portfolio which can be found under the Templates folder in Blackboard. 

​
