UWRT 1101, SPRING 2015
PROFESSOR ADAM MORGAN

In UWRT 1101, writing is both the primary subject of inquiry and the primary activity. Students write, revise, edit and reflect on their writing with the support of the teacher and peers.

 

Students also engage critically with the opinions and voices of others, as they are encouraged to understand how their writing can have an effect on themselves and their environments.

 

As the primary subject of readings and discussion, writing is explored as it relates to different contexts, discourses, cultures and textual media. As students inquire into literacy, they understand their own writing and development with heightened awareness.

 

Grades are derived primarily from portfolios that include work generated throughout the term.
