Marquette University-First Year English
In 2018, the writing program at Marquette University (First Year English) was housed within the English department and directed by Dr. Jenn Fishman, Associate Professor of English. Marquette's writing program included a 2-course sequence: (1) English 1001: Rhetoric & Composition I, Academic Literacies and (2) English 1002: Rhetoric & Composition II, Public Literacies. This exhibit focuses on the second course which included a digital poster assignment and a remix assignment.
This exhibit includes a variety of curricular materials, professional development materials used to train and support faculty's teaching of digital posters and remix projects, and maps from faculty in the program tracing their techno-pedagogical influences.
Note: This exhibit focuses on what are now historical curricular materials for students and instructors. At the time of our visit, the writing program at Marquette was grappling with institutional revisions of their core curricula that condensed and restructured FYE. The restructuring of FYE included eliminating the FYE Program and WPA position, as well as trading the second course in the FYE sequence, the course where students completed a digital writing project, for a writing-intensive, upper-division course offered by any department.

Research Materials
With the purpose of providing a back screen view of how research happens—particularly thinking about readers who are currently in grad programs and post-grads planning their first survey, interview, focus group, and/or multi-campus ecological site visit case studies—this exhibit shares all of the materials we’ve used from 2011 to 2019 (i.e., IRB applications; a CCCCs Emergent Researcher Grant proposal; and a number of research tools, including recruiting materials, surveys, interview scripts, focus group protocols, literature review matrices, and program profile matrices).
Salt Lake Community College - English Composition Sequence
In 2019, the English composition sequence was housed within the English department and overseen by Stephen Ruffus, Associate Dean of English, and Department Coordinators Chris Blankenship (Assistant Professor of English) and Brittany Stephenson (Associate Professor of English). SLCC's English faculty facilitate most of the courses that fulfill the college's writing requirement.

This exhibit includes a variety of curricular materials, professional development materials used to train and support faculty's teaching of digital projects—especially the civically-engaged text in 1010 and two assignments (one informative, one persuasive) as well as revision work for an eportfolio in 2010—, and maps from faculty in the program tracing their techno-pedagogical influences.
