The Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) program at Wright State University exists to help faculty and students meet the goals of the WAC program:
- To improve students’ writing proficiency — their ability to develop ideas and transmit information for an appropriate audience in an organized, coherent fashion while writing with appropriate style and correct grammar, usage, punctuation and spelling.
- To encourage students to use writing as a learning tool to explore and structure ideas, to articulate thoughts and questions, and to discover what they know and do not know, thereby empowering students to use writing as a tool of discovery, self-discipline, and thought.
- To demonstrate for students the ways in which writing is integral to all disciplines, essential to the learning and conveying of knowledge in all fields.
We’ve created this blog as a way to offer faculty an easy way to pick up teaching tips and ideas about Writing Across the Curriculum. Approximately once a week we post news and links related to the teaching of writing.
