We offer a range of resources for teaching writing-intensive courses at Middlebury, from planning your syllabus to establishing goals for the course; from considerations that come up while you are teaching your course to responding to and grading student writing. The underlying goals for teaching writing at Middlebury are that students learn the conventions of disciplinary writing, express themselves effectively, use writing to learn, and finally, become aware of the processes that produce good writing. Our web pages on these topics are very much a work- in- progress . We ask for your patience as you peruse our notes to ourselves and our links to hand-outs that you may print out.
Help us Compile Assignments and Writing Samples
In our effort to serve faculty at Middlebury College, the Writing Program is currently creating an online archive of writing assignments across the curriculum, and models of exemplary student writing. To help us in our process, please send electronic versions of your favorite assignments, models of student work, and resources about responding to student writing to cwwright@middlebury.edu . Hard copies may be sent to 225G, Center for Teaching, Learning and Research, Library.
