This book is the first guide focused specifically on training students to engage in fellows discipline-specific and course-embedded writing and speaking support. It is designed to be a readable, useful resource for students and administrators in fellows, writing center, writing in the disciplines, and other writing programs.
To provide specialized disciplinary support, beyond the scope of generalist writing centers, fellows need preparation that is targeted to this work. This book provides practical and theoretical frameworks and pragmatic resources for moving across disciplines. It offers best practices for complex communications with students as well as faculty and program administrators, including scenarios and activities to prepare peer fellows to navigate these contexts.
A Guide for Writing and Speaking Fellows is an accessible resource for fellows themselves and for administrators building fellows programs.
Online resources including a sample syllabus, Power Point slides, example assignments/training activities for a fellows course and links to additional resources are available at www.routledge.com/9781041119180.
