PWR 1JPA: Writing & Rhetoric 1: Learning toward the Future: Education in Changing Times
Is higher education primarily a pathway to a career, or is it designed for you to learn about yourself and how you can contribute to the world? Is it possible for higher education to achieve both of these goals?
PWR 1 courses focus on developing writing and revision strategies for rhetorical analysis and research-based arguments that draw on multiple sources. In this course we will consider the concept of liberal arts education and address how college should prepare students for adult life. By working with education theorists as wide-ranging as Diane Ravitch, Ken Robinson, William Deresiewicz, and Stanley Fish, we will frame the debate and set the stage for your own investigation.

PWR 1JSA: Writing & Rhetoric 1: The Rhetoric of Plants
PWR 1 courses focus on developing writing and revision strategies for rhetorical analysis and research-based arguments that draw on multiple sources. In this class we will refocus our attention on plants, using them as a lens to explore, research, and write about different aspects of our world. For example, we will study how new scientific ideas are communicated and accepted by studying the work of maize geneticist and Nobel laureate Barbara McClintock. We will explore Lysenkoism, the politicization of agricultural science in the Soviet Union, drawing parallels to modern day climate change science, and we will dive into the research on urban tree coverage to see how plants can be a marker for social inequality For course videos and full descriptions, see
