• involve students in informal writing assignments that promote course learning;
• stage and sequence assignments to encourage writing as a process of creating and communicating knowledge;
• maximize opportunities for guidance, feedback, and revision;
• teach the writing conventions that are inseparable from modes of inquiry in a discipline; and
• make writing a substantive component of the overall course grade to underscore the value of writing to the course, the discipline, and student learning. | | Prerequisite: | CHEM 2212 and CHEM 2300 | Semester Course
