Since 1983 the GU Writing Program has sponsored training in the teaching of writing for graduate students in disciplines other than English. We invite TAs from various departments to apply to participate in this spring semester training which consists of 8 meetings to discuss approaches to teaching composition. Readings, discussions, and assignments include the following: writing in the disciplines; the process of writing; designing assignments; roles of speaking, reading, and writing; shaping discussion groups; research in teaching; evaluating student writing; and designing writing intensive courses. We expect the graduate students to work carefully and closely with student writing throughout the training. Graduate students accepted for this training are awarded the title of "Writing Center Fellows" and receive a stipend.
