EN 503 - Creative Writing PedagogyCredits: 3
The purpose of Creative Writing Pedagogy is to prepare students to design, teach, and manage a creative writing workshop course. We aim to empower you to find an approach that works for you, enabling you to teach to your strengths and supply you with skills that will make you more confident and successful teachers and more marketable as you apply for teaching jobs. We will read pertinent literature on teaching creative writing, delving into various approaches to craft, managing the workshop environment both in the classroom and online, and methods for grading and evaluating creative work. We will explore and complete exercises, simulate workshops, create and exchange exercises for poetry and fiction, review creative writing textbooks, write and revise teaching philosophy statements, and write and revise a syllabus for a creative writing course. Each element created by students will be shared with the class in order to explore alternative approaches and to better develop your own approach.
