Abstract

Brief excerpt from interview: We expect a gold standard journal. This can be a problem, especially for non-English speaking students. If they are going to be in a profession that requires good writing skills, they need to find a way to compensate, to show that they do have good writing skills. So the first thing we do is to share where they can go to get help, like the Writing Center. We have, on Laulima, resources they can access to write a good paper. We also have a rubric, with characteristics corresponding to grades. We give sample journals and sample field reports to the students, and say rewrite this section so that's it's concise... We use Dr. Charles Darling's guide to grammar website. We have the Purdue OWL. We submit comments via Laulima. [Journals figure into class dynamics because] we often have writing activities in class. We also discuss plagiarism in class, and we review our expectations for all writing assignments in class.We have a guest speaker come in when we do resumes.
