  • WRIT 020 PZ -Writing Seminar: Representing LA


    Institution: Pitzer

    Description: Dorothy Parker supposedly called Los Angeles “seventy-two suburbs in search of a city,” reinforcing a popular imagine of the city as a fragmented metropolis, where unbridled ambition clashed with visions for a good community. Yet Los Angeles is also imagined as a city of dreams, the epicenter of myth-making industries like Hollywood and Disney. This writing seminar engages urban histories, cultural studies, literature, and film to explore contradictory representations of America’s most unlikely megalopolis. Throughout the course, we’ll draw on the work of scholars and public intellectuals to intervene in debates about the cultural meaning of this fascinating and troubling city. For the capstone project, students will conduct research on any aspect of Southern Californian culture that interests them. Possible topics may include food cultures in ethnic communities,  L.A.’s alternative music or comedy scenes, or the representation of race in L.A. noir. Along the way, we’ll practice strategies of argument that will make us more confident and sophisticated academic writers.

    Prerequisite(s): Please check course schedule for requirements.

  • WRIT 100 PZ -Teaching and Tutoring of Writing


    Institution: Pitzer

    Description: “Good writers are born, not made” - so the common misconception goes. Yet writing is a deeply social activity
    developed through regular practice, challenging new tasks, and constructive feedback from communities of readers.
    In this seminar we’ll investigate theories from writing studies to examine our own creative and professional
    practices as writers, students, and past, present or future teachers or tutors. Along the way, we’ll ask questions such
    as these: why is it so tricky to name what constitutes “good” writing? What can scholars of writing tell us about why
    so many of us find the process difficult? What is expertise and how do writers gain it? Why do different disciplines
    conceptualize knowledge in such radically different ways? And finally, what roles can teachers and tutors play in
    helping diverse learners develop as writers? Aimed at students interested in cultivating the habits of effective writers
    and educators, this class is both theoretical and practical in its orientation. All students participate in a mock
    tutoring session and develop a mini-lesson plan that teaches the class a writing or reading concept. For the final
    project, students contribute knowledge to the field by submitting a short essay for publication in a writing studies
    journal.


    Note: This course will be required of those Pitzer students who have been hired to work in the Writing Center.
    Students who are not working in the Writing Center may take the course, but those students must participate in at
    least 3 hours per week of tutoring either at a writing center or as volunteers in a service-learning project that
    emphasizes the teaching of English or writing.
