communication courses to undergraduate and graduate students across
the university. Specifically, we teach a first-year communication
course, CC0001 Inquiry & Communication in an Interdisciplinary World,
which, through scaffolded activities and writing exercises, takes
students through the writing process, cultivating habits of thinking
that will serve students throughout their four years at university and
beyond. We also teach the upper-level discipline specific
communication courses for engineering, the humanities, sciences, and
social sciences. For all our compulsory communication courses, we
emphasise writing as a tool for thinking, student feedback literacy,
and rhetorical awareness.
