First Year Composition: "Our Foundational Studies Community" Series

The University College Council, as part of the "Our Foundational Studies Community" Series, presents a session on First Year Composition. Many faculty may have questions about what skills students develop in First Year Composition courses. A panel of First Year Composition instructors will discuss the nature of the experience, laying out some common challenges in writing as well as strategies to handle such issues; and generally engage the participants in a discussion of how to approach writing more generally with first year students across the Foundational Studies curriculum.
