First-Year Writing Seminar Program

Permanent URI for this community

The Archive of Teaching Materials for the Knight Institute makes available the winning entries for the John S. Knight and James F. Slevin Assignment Sequence Prizes and for the Knight Award for Writing Exercises. These sequences and exercises were produced for First-Year Writing Seminars, one of the country's largest and most diverse programs in writing in the disciplines: each semester, over 100 different courses are taught in more than 30 departments and programs located in the humanities, social sciences, expressive arts, and sciences. Through introductory work in each seminar's particular field of study, students learn to write in a range of genres and in ways that emphasize clarity, coherence, intellectual force, and stylistic control.

All documents (in pdf form) are searchable; “Assignment Sequences” and “Writing Exercises” may be searched separately, or the entire archive may be searched at once. For a more in-depth description of how to use these materials, please go to the following link: http://www.arts.cornell.edu/knight_institute/teachingsupport/7100/atm.htm

So that we may continue to improve the Archive, please report any problems with searching to the Knight Institute: dlo1@cornell.edu .
