Plattsburgh State - College Catalog

ENG305 - Teaching Writing (3 cr.)

This course connects central theories of composition to the practical action a writing teacher takes in the secondary English classroom (Grades 7-12). Through readings, discussion, and individual and collaborative writing, students heighten their awareness of process and develop an image of the kind of writing teacher they hope to be. Related issues include: designing effective writing assignments, evaluation, peer and teacher conferencing. Students will write in expressive and reflective modes; they will orally synthesize assigned readings on composition theory and pedagogy; and they will design and facilitate a grade-specific writing lesson for the adolescent learner that meets national and state standards. (Spring & Fall). Liberal arts. Prerequisite: ENG101.
