Session 1B: A Forgotten Art? Teaching Literature in the Composition Classroom
No full textWhile they are designed to prepare students for writing at the college level in any discipline, Composition courses are focused on writing, specifically rhetoric and argument. However, students are often ill-prepared for writing about literature after completing two semesters of rhetoric and argument over nonfiction, and many dual credit seniors must complete two semesters of literature. While it is understandable that new dual credit Literature students might not know many literary terms/concepts, it is surprising how many of these students also struggle to transfer and apply any of their analytical and argumentative skills from Composition. At our dual credit campus, we chose to include a unit on writing about literature at the end of the spring semester to help bridge the genres and emphasize those core similarities. Students openly embraced the opportunity to read and write about literature, and we were pleased with the student engagement and quality of their assignments
