You will write often and widely in our units on science, business, and the humanities. There are 9 total assignments in this class – 3 unit projects and 6 feeders, or smaller pieces designed to lay the groundwork for the unit projects. By writing in and across the disciplines, I hope to foster discussion about the types of knowledge embedded in our fields and the ways in which these epistemes might speak to the vexed intersection of academic and professional circles. We will build our ideas from general topics to specific research questions that, as well-articulated, cogent arguments, fill a gap in the current scholarship. Perhaps most importantly, we will do so as a group by giving each other the type of meaningful feedback that helps us to improve as writers and participants in academic communications. N.B.: These documents are for class use only. They are also available on Blackboard, but I have put them here for backup. Occasionally the system goes down, requires maintenance, etc., and there is a slight chance of losing the BB course website. Syllabus For a copy of the syllabus, click here.
