Capstone Project

My capstone project--files accessible here or on Creative Writing Portfolio Site--is really an attempt to apply my learning to develop a first-year writing curriculum that emphasizes creative thinking in classroom activities. Whereas the Coursework Overview and Learning Milestones show ways in which I've met learning outcomes and made connections in courses I've taken, the capstone project illustrates how I've taken the reflective step of thinking about my own experiences as a graduate student in given activities/curricula and identifying with first-year students' experiences that might occur.

A continued reflection is available here (link), and a more in-depth demonstration of how my coursework and learning in writing studies translates to better-informed curricular design is evident in the next section, "Threshold Concepts," which you can access from the drop-down menu above, or by clicking here.
