Suggestions for Systematic Writing Intensive (WI) Assessment

Recommendations

Given the inherent variations in writing conventions and expectations across disciplines, the WAC program recommends that each program conduct a systematic assessment of its capstone Writing Intensive (WI) courses at a minimum of every four years. This evaluation should be based on established goals specifically designed to align with the expected writing proficiencies and requirements of each discipline.
