ENGL 105: Writing at the Research University, Fall 2020

ENGL 105, Sec 079 and 091, Fall 2020, UNC-CH

This past fall, I taught two sections of ENGL 105: Writing at the Research University. Due to the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, both sections were taught as remote, synchronous courses.

The students performed admirably and created important and historical work as they explored writing and research across a variety of disciplines, genres, and media (including ethnographic studies of people’s use of public spaces during a pandemic).

To see their work (and their weekly reflections from the class), visit the course website.
