What is Place-Based Pedagogy and How Can You Employ It in Your Course?
By carefully scaffolding a course focused on place-based research, from ego-centric considerations of self in place, to selected theoretical readings about the importance of telling stories, the deep terrain of bioregionalism, and the politics of location, I encourage students to think about the theoretical importance of place. Toggled with those readings, students practice critical reading, writing, and thinking, as well as ways of conducting research. This includes practice interviewing, dives

Cooperative Essay project. Essay project, Composition, Group essay
This is a group essay unit in which students work in groups to write compositions. I usually use this assignment after we have finished a class novel. Typically, I provide a prompt for the essay, such as “What is the theme of (novel’s title here)?”
The reasons I offer a group essay are many. First, it allows the less skilled students to be swept up into the process of composition and really get to see how to do good writing. I always form the groups heterogeneously—meaning I pair good writers w
