Engages students in analyzing diverse forms of sustainability-oriented writing aimed at communicating effectively to a broad range of audiences. Forms of writing addressed may include feature articles, narratives, editorials, essays, blogs, policies, creative nonfiction, and signs/public information used in displays; oral traditions may also be explored. Students also engage in reading and authoring communications designed to secure support for sustainability initiatives. Examples include letters and petitions as well as grant, research, and project proposals. To learn effective writing strategies, students analyze writing modes, techniques, and devices. They then apply these elements in their own writing within a classroom peer review setting.
