Heidi Henderson
Writing Fellow
What is your department? Dance
Which writing courses do you teach? Dance Writing
What have you gained from being a Writing Fellow?
Every time I have a conversation with another faculty member, I learn more about another discipline, and about how writing in their field is constructed as a part of the process of learning.
Why should other faculty members consider becoming Writing Fellows?
Being a writing fellow gives me a larger Conn community, ideas for working interdisciplinarily, and ideas for my own writing and teaching.
Why would you encourage faculty to work with a Writing Fellow?
Conversation and sharing ideas opens us to newness, expands our teaching, sparks excitement about the act of teaching.
