WAC Consultations
Writing center faculty Dee Baer (dbaer@udel.edu) and Dorry Ross (dross@udel.edu) work with both individual professors and departments across the University on projects that range from setting guidelines for a blog in a study abroad class in India to developing and assessing a faculty questionnaire about the quality and quantity of writing by its majors.
These experienced consultants can show you many simple and practical ways to add writing to your classes, or they can work with you to develop everything from creating sequenced writing assignments for major papers to simple strategies for dealing with grammar issues.
