WRIT 165IO SC - Prison Writing Center Praxis I/O


In this course, inside and outside students discuss the theory and practice of an Inside/Out Writing Center. Students read about and then practice various kinds of writing center pedagogy, prison writing pedagogy, and all aspects of the academic essay writing process. In doing so, they engage in nuanced discussions of the politics of academic writing, the English language, and college pedagogy; they also discuss studies of incarceration and of writing pedagogy in prisons, some of which focuses on the Inside/Out program itself. Assignments include prewriting, reflective writing, and essay-writing and revision; small-group peer workshop; full-class workshop; mock tutorial and debrief; discussion of readings; presentations; sentence-level editing; and oral presentation skill-building.
