ENGL 92001 - Practicum: Teaching Writ & Lit

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

English

Description:

The aim of English 92001 is to prepare you to teach First-Year Composition (FYC) in the University Writing Program at Notre Dame. The course does this in two ways: first, by introducing you to readings in rhetoric and composition that provide a basis for making informed choices in the classroom. Second, by providing you with opportunities to practice skills such as lesson planning, designing writing assignments, responding to student papers, managing writing groups, and planning a syllabus. To these ends, you will read selectively in rhetoric and composition theory, observe faculty currently teaching in the University Writing Program, and complete a series of short assignments. By the end of the course, you will be prepared to teach First-Year Composition at the college level.
