GE GOALS AND WRITING PEDAGOGY

Are you proposing or updating a General Education (GE) course for your department? After reviewing CSUF’s GE Writing Goals and some basic writing pedagogy, this workshop will introduce an effective process for incorporating writing into your GE courses. Participants will leave with a few writing activities with which to gauge student competence in their course’s student learning outcomes.  Please bring a syllabus. 

This workshop is available through the Faculty Development Center (FDC) and also by appointment at departmental meetings or retreats.
