WAC Resources

There are a number of websites dedicated to Writing Across the Curriculum, primary among them, the WAC Clearinghouse hosted by Colorado State University:

http://wac.colostate.edu/

At Kingsborough, we have an e-reserve site with a select group of articles available to all interested faculty. Some are introductory; some are more theoretical, exploring the relationship between writing and learning or writing and thinking; some are case studies of classroom practice. Please note a password is required to access e-reserve sites. You may obtain one from Judy Cohen at ext. 5591.

The address of the e-reserve site is: http://eres.kingsborough.edu:8080/eres/

We recommend the following as introductory readings:

David Russell Writing Across the Curriculum in Historical Perspective
