This required course is designed to help students engage and reflect on their sense of themselves as writers and readers and how their sociocultural perspectives influence their writing pedagogy. Students will reflect on how readers and writers are constructed in and beyond school and on how they see their roles as teachers and assessors of writing. Students will examine their personal literacy histories and how they construct their teacher identity through autobiography, autoethnography and other writing genres.
