- Title
Writing on the Periphery: The Writing Landscape of a Two-Year College.
- Authors
Ihara, Rachel; Del Principe, Annie
- Abstract
This article reports on a longitudinal study of the writing assignments students at our twoyear college were given in courses outside of composition. While other studies have looked at writing assigned across the curriculum, this research typically focuses on four-year, rather than two-year, institutions. Our study of a small cohort of students suggests that at our institution there is a significant disconnect between the amount and types of writing students are assigned in composition and non-composition courses. Our findings add to the existing literature on college writing, while also informing our understanding of the goals and purposes of composition within our local context.
