Claim Your Space: Projects from English 3764 Technical Writing

Abstract

Poster and paper exhibit featuring the coursework of English 3764 Technical Writing. This semester, students in two sections of Technical Writing collaborated on course projects exploring intersections of space and student experience at Virginia Tech. Each class determined their overall project topic based on proposal presentations and worked in small groups to complete research-driven white papers and websites about different spaces where students live and work in Blacksburg. Their goal was to provide students with resources to help make decisions about where to live and to raise awareness about academic resources available in buildings across the Blacksburg campus. While researching, groups also considered the effect of space on college student well-being and academic success. 2018/12/03 - 2019/03/31
