Critical Partnerships for Linguistically Inclusive College Writing Placement

Research output: Contribution to conferencePresentation

Abstract

Colleges are invested in improving student success and retention, but few admissions, advising, and writing programs have collaborated with TESOL specialists to connect U.S.-resident multilingual students to appropriate resources. Those partnerships could be leveraged to create a linguistically inclusive first-year writing process that identifies students who need or desire more English language support without stigmatizing them. The presenters offer strategies for collaboratively building linguistic diversity into the writing placement process. Participants in high school programs, college admissions, adult schools, and college writing programs will discover new ways to strengthen pathways to and through college.
