Sounding Like a Scholar

Event details

Date: Wednesday, January 23, 2013
Time: 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Location: Room 301, Reynolda Hall
Description: Have you ever wondered why your students writing often sounds general, awkward, or unsophisticated? Or have you wished that your students could express a more scholarly writing style? This session will explore some of the complex factors at play in student writing, particularly in research-based tasks. Drawing on faculty interviews and detailed analysis of high- and low-graded student writing in three separate disciplines, concrete ways to assist students to express appropriate and authoritative stances in their course writing will be discussed.
