Description
(Apprenticeship/Internship/Practicum with variable meeting hours) The Writing Internship involves a placement with a community organization. Students learn how to write for audiences outside of the academy, follow specific ethical guidelines for writing and produce a range of written texts. The specifics of each internship are determined in consultation between the community organization, the student-intern, the university's internship coordinator, and the instructor. Training and supervision for the work components are provided by the community organization and academic oversight are provided by the instructor. Assessment for the Writing Internship is Pass/Fail, based on performance evaluation by the community organization and academic writing demonstrating learning from the experience.
