Writing Atlas
This course introduces students to the core practices of academic writing, emphasizing writing as a recursive process of inquiry, argumentation, and revision. Drawing on the moves and templates of They Say/I Say and the research methods of The Craft of Research, students learn to enter scholarly conversations, frame research questions, gather and evaluate evidence, and craft persuasive, source-based arguments. Weekly workshops integrate grammar, style, and citation conventions through hands-on drafting, peer review, and reflection.
