In this week’s episode, we have the privilege of introducing a remarkable team that operates in the shadows, working tirelessly on ASU’s high-impact courses. Join us as we sit down with the extraordinary faculty members from the Writers’ Studio: Michelle Stuckey (Clinical Assistant Professor and the Writing Program Administrator), Zach Waggoner (ENG 101 Coordinator), John Buckley (Writers’ Studio Course Coordinator), and Sean Tingle (ENG 105 Faculty). We hear how they work with Michael Miller, an Academic Success and Retention specialist to hear how they embark on a journey to redefine the first-year writing course, emphasizing real-world writing experiences over traditional academic writing. They collaborate as a cohesive team to craft not one, but three courses, all interconnected by an engaging throughline that leverages students’ own life experiences as a vital part of the writing process. Michael also takes some time to unveil the inner workings of the Learning Initiatives Team within EdPlus. Discover how they employ data to inform their design decisions when revamping high-impact courses for online students.

It’s not all just data talk – We also can’t NOT talk about AI and its impact on these first-year writers. Hear how this team is tackling AI in the classroom.
