Writing Across the Curriculum

Appalachian State University's Writing Across the Curriculum Program is committed to supporting faculty as they strive to use writing in inclusive ways in their classrooms. In addition to our dedicated Trauma-Informed Pedagogy resources, we have also collected and/or created a variety of resources, which are availabe below, and we are happy to work with individual faculty or departments to ensure that writing opportunities across our campus are designed to support rather than undermine student learning.
