Art Young. Writing Across and Against the Curriculum.

Young, Art. "Writing Across and Against the Curriculum." CCC. 54.3 (2003): 472-485.

Abstract:

After reviewing my career as a teacher of composition and literature and as a writing program administrator of writing across the curriculum, I discuss the potential of poetry across the curriculum as an important tool for writing "against" the curriculum of academic discourse. When they write poetry, students often express meaningful thoughts and emotions not readily available to them in disciplinary languages and contexts.
