The multi-lesson "Best Class/Worst Class" project provides a way for students and professor to set expectations for course performance collaboratively, while simultaneously modeling productive online interaction strategies. Students become more aware of their own learning process and the processes of those with whom they will be working, creating necessary bridges to successful collaboration. In addition, students are able to develop practical skills in navigating the online environment before being tasked with heavily-weighted course components.This project is designed to be implemented alongside discipline-specific course content. 

This is an OER syllabus for EN 101 English Composition I at Miles College. This syllabus was created as part of a HBCU Textbook Transformation Grant awarded to the institution, for the purpose of replacing high cost textbooks with appropriate OERs.

This peer review resource is part of the Digital Design for Student Success (D2S2) project, a collaboration between Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB), Rice University, Texas A & M University, and The University of Texas. Peer review materials are designed for use in any course that uses writing--particularly writing flag (writing intensive) courses in the undergraduate curriculum.

This folder contains assignments related to the researched position paper and annotated bibliography used at Texas A&M University for freshman composition.

This modern, open-source guide to technical and professional writing explores workplace composition through theoretical and practical applications. Discussions of multiple writing genres will assist you in understanding how to apply for jobs, how to compose clear and precise business communications once the job has been acquired, and how to create documents -- such as proposals and reports -- that will be instrumental in helping to advance your career.

This unit is for teaching a rhetorical visual analysis. It includes the assignment and peer review instructions, assessment rubrics, and a graphic organizer for workshopping the process. It is one way to assess for visual communication skills as required in the Texas Core Objectives.
