NDLW: Leading the Globalization of WAC with Diverse Perspectives

Abstract

Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) has organically evolved at Purdue Global during the last decade in accordance with the typical stages described by Condon and Rutz (2013), and much progress has been made in supporting student writers. Additionally, written communication skills are even more important in today’s global, digital world (Rammia, 2015; Zumbrunn & Krause, 2012), therefore, continuing to expand upon this great place initiative is key. This panel presentation will define WAC and its existing implementation at PG. The presenters will then introduce “WAC 3.0” and introduce attendees to the new Writing Across the Curriculum Advisory Committee. Information will be shared about how the group will be further expanding WAC to better involve faculty and other PG constituents who support student writing.
