So, I'm research essays, and one of my students is citing an author by using their first name. Like, gurl, you don't know Stephen King, why you calling him "Stephen"? 😂 #academia #highered #rhetoric #composition #firstyearwriting

Writing a syllabus is an exercise in both hope and futility. What does it mean to teach #firstyearwriting in the age of #chatgpt? Useless? Essential? Vestigial, like pinkytoes? #teaching

Students generally seemed to agree with the argument, but we began to discuss how our experiences of meaning, learning, love, & freedom are contextual. For these #firstyearwriting classes at a private uni, we discussed their “freedom” as it may compare to students’ at public unis.

We played Story Stitch in #FirstYearWriting today, and it was incredible watching my students tell stories about their lives. It's a super easy card game that involves flipping cards with story prompts, and they can choose to engage the question or skip it, so it's low stakes.
