Teaching Writing in College explores the connections between writing pedagogy and learning transfer. Episodes emphasize praxis--the relationship between the theoretical and practical--in an effort to understand how people learn to write and how educators might make the most of the time they have with their learners. The driving question is: How can instructors in higher education leverage theory, science, pedagogy, and craft most effectively to help their learners with writing?

36. The STAR Criteria and Thinking about Evidence Rhetorically
For episode 36, I share a helpful acronym from Richard Fulkerson called the STAR criteria. STAR can prompt learners (or all of us) to ask: is my support sufficient, typical, accurate, and relevant? STAR can also be helpful for writing transfer. While I've used the STAR criteria to help students make decisions about support or evidence they might use in an essay, Substack, report or any other written assignment based on genre, I've also used it to help students make decisions about how they support reflection about their own writing in metacognitive assignments. To my mind, metacognitive reflection is a skill in its own right, and appropriate support can and should come from the student's own writing life. STAR can help students This episode walks through how I have used the STAR criteria recently, both for writing practice and for reflection.Teaching Writing in College is available:YouTube (video): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUWbbrcygqkZvxqdPCqhuzu0yyx5trJUwApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teaching-writing-in-college/id1667922309YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUWbbrcygqkZvxqdPCqhuzu0yyx5trJUw&si=ZnTI_Q3dItN5rodfSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4TxG7hTN6qaJHN9euDBIZU?si=ur3jQve0TdyeSLKVyLsNgwSocials:Email: teachingwritingincollege@gmail.comFacebook: Teaching Writing in CollegeBluesky: @teachingwriting.bsky.socialYouTube: @teachingwritingincollegeMastodon: mastodon.social/@teachingwritingincollege

35. Transparency in Writing in the Age of AI
Questions about whether and how AI is used in writing and other communication seem to be an important part of the writer/audience relationship. In this episode, I walk through my effort to include transparency as a form of knowledge about writing. With transparency as a frame, this semester I have shared two strategies with my students that can help them be transparent in their use of AI.Teaching Writing in College is available:YouTube (video): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUWbbrcygqkZvxqdPCqhuzu0yyx5trJUwApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teaching-writing-in-college/id1667922309YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUWbbrcygqkZvxqdPCqhuzu0yyx5trJUw&si=ZnTI_Q3dItN5rodfSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4TxG7hTN6qaJHN9euDBIZU?si=ur3jQve0TdyeSLKVyLsNgwSocials:Email: teachingwritingincollege@gmail.comFacebook: Teaching Writing in CollegeBluesky: @teachingwriting.bsky.socialYouTube: @teachingwritingincollegeMastodon: mastodon.social/@teachingwritingincollege

34. Infuse Some Sanity into Your Teaching in the Age of AI
In episode 34, I consider another way of looking at my success with AI in the classroom: through assessment. To my mind, AI has imposed a great deal of guesswork into assessment of student writing: "Did my student write this, or was it written by AI?" Since AI is here to stay as part of just about anyone's writing ecosystem, it's important to focus on what really matters: "Is writing being written in a way that still helps it meet audience expectations?" I offer a brief overview of how I try to tackle that question, using the rhetorical concept of evidence as an example. Are my students using evidence in a way that seems to fit with a given genre? Using the term "evidence" with my students as a key term for knowledge about writing and having classroom activities about how evidence might vary depending on a given genre has set me up to make assessment a little bit easier, whether AI played a role in the writing or not.Teaching Writing in College is available:YouTube (video): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUWbbrcygqkZvxqdPCqhuzu0yyx5trJUwApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/teaching-writing-in-college/id1667922309YouTube Music: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUWbbrcygqkZvxqdPCqhuzu0yyx5trJUw&si=ZnTI_Q3dItN5rodfSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4TxG7hTN6qaJHN9euDBIZU?si=ur3jQve0TdyeSLKVyLsNgwSocials:Email: teachingwritingincollege@gmail.comFacebook: Teaching Writing in CollegeBluesky: @teachingwriting.bsky.socialYouTube: @teachingwritingincollegeMastodon: mastodon.social/@teachingwritingincollege
