PInterrogating Disciplines/Disciplinarity in WAC/WID: An Institutional Study

Anne Ruggles Gere ; Sarah C. Swofford ; Naomi Silver ; Melody Pugh

Abstract

Examination of the perspectives and experiences of faculty, graduate student instructors, and undergraduates participating in a WAC/WID program shows how discipline-focused WAC/WID principles are often resisted, interrogated, and subverted by all three groups of stakeholders. New disciplinarity, especially its concepts of borderlands and elasticity, offers a promising focus for WAC/WID.
