Groupmembers have peer-reviewed each other’s writing, particularly in cases where the members havepreviously written for, or been awarded funding from, the same or similarorganizations/opportunities. Other mechanisms to support each other’s writing has come inmultiple forms of peer accountability: expecting reports on daily or weekly writing productivity;meeting for smaller “writing groups” where members use time

Writing through the Writing Studio ModelAbstractThis paper presents the results of a pilot collaboration between the University Writing Centerand a senior-level Electrical Engineering course. To address the growing need forengineering students to improve their written communications skills, the professor added aresearch project to their class. Students then participated in a required writing studio, awriting group of five to seven students who provide feedback to one another on their writingprocesses throughout the semester. The writing studios are facilitated by the UniversityWriting Center undergraduate peer tutors, some of whom are also engineering students.Research in writing studies show that simply assigning

Negative experiences in team settings may cause women to feel less valued, different,and or emphasize the fact that they don’t belong, all factors that can lead to women leavingengineering [5]. Furthermore, women often “report feeling that they must work harder than theirmale peer to get teams to acknowledge the work they’ve done” [5]. In fact, men tend tounderestimate their women peers’ competence and knowledge in the classroom [6] and are likelyto dismiss what they view as female-typical speech acts [5]. Other research suggests that incollege courses, writing specifically is undervalued or invisible when compared to

In the model, sophomores engage by learning the skills associated with directleadership of individuals and small teams and the management of duties. In a sophomore-leveltechnical writing course (required of all engineering and computer science majors), sophomore-level leader development was assessed using the institution’s criteria. These small teams had ahands-on, technical assignment that lasted several weeks. There was a difference in leadershipskills and communication skills observed between the traditional students with their formalleadership curricula and the student veterans. Student peers consistently rated student veteranshigher in all areas of the leadership attributes

This grant has several focus areas, one ofwhich is the improvement of writing and writing instruction in General Education (GE) classes.A significant percent of SJSU’s incoming freshmen are remedial in English or mathematics. PerCSU policy, students must clear their remedial status within one year or they are disenrolled fromthe CSU. A look into retention rates shows that there is a higher attrition among remedial studentsthan their non-remedial peers. Also, the time to graduation is typically lengthened up to two yearsfor students who need remedial classes.Many of these remedial

We have hosted two DIs to date (2017and 2018) and we are preparing for our third DI in 2019.
