PRACTICUM FOR READING AND WRITING CONSULTANTS

Course Description

This course is designed to train students who have been hired to work in the Center for Reading and Writing. Students will read and discuss texts on a variety of topics, including writing center pedagogy, reading and writing instruction, and strategies for engaging students in one-to-one conversations about their work; they will also study and practice methods for engaging with the student body through presentations and workshops. Discussions of theory will be integrated with consultants’ ongoing practice in the Center, and a final research project will be based upon their work experience.
