“Working in the Middle: Using The
Critical Thinking Rubric as a Writing Heuristic”
My participation in the Critical
Thinking Project has been a bit unique as I neither assign nor grade writing;
instead I run small undergraduate and graduate writers' groups for students
enrolled in other writing-intensive courses. I have found the CT Rubric to be a
very useful strategy to help students deeply explore their research topics
before and during the drafting process. I will share my experiences from these
small writers' groups and hope to discuss ways that these strategies might be
applied in larger classroom situations.
