Inhalt:
"This edited collection positions writing and composition professionals at the center of liberal education, and explores how writing instruction, writing scholarship, and writing program administration bring STEM and the humanities together in meaningful, creative, and beneficial ways. Writing scholars are at the forefront of a cross-pollination between STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and the arts and humanities. In their daily work as educators, scholars, and administrators, they find ways to collaborate with colleagues in engineering, scientific, and health disciplines; offer new degree programs that allow students to bring the humanities to bear on design experiments, and build an academic culture that promotes a vision of the humanities in the twenty-first century, as well as a vision of technology that is decidedly human. This collection surveys and promotes that work through chapters focused on instruction, scholarship, and writing program administration that cover topics including data-driven writing courses, public science communication, non-traditional college students, creative writing, gamification, skills transfer, and Writing Across the Curriculum programs. Writing STEAM will be essential reading for scholars, instructors, and administrators in writing studies, rhetoric and composition, and interdisciplinary programs, and will aid in teacher training for both humanities and STEM courses focused on writing and communication"--
