This Class is meeting the first day of classes Monday Aug. 29 but will be strictly online through Blackboard after that.

https://elearn.uta.edu/ You will enter your UTA username and ID to access this course.

At this point, I’m still working on getting the syllabus and course all online so you can check out the assignments in last Spring’s syllabus. The assignments are the same except the literacy history and journals. I took those out.

LIST 4343 Spring 2011 Syllabus- You can also visit a past official blog for LIST 4343 at http://blog.uta.edu/~jwiggins Check out the blogroll and other resources

Literacy Strategy Sign-up sheet, we will do this in class on the first day but the sign up sheet will be available after the first day of class.

Student Work Examples- Make sure that you read the syllabus instructions carefully as some of the guidelines have changed since these assignments were due.

You will be put into groups for the semester where you will have discussion questions for you to discuss on the Group Discussion Board.

This is Module 1 and the rest of the modules will be set up very similarly to this.

About Dr. Wiggins

Posted in January 14th, 2008
by jwiggins in My research projects

I am an assistant professor at the University of Texas at Arlington where I teach in the Literacy Studies department. Please browse my blog and find out more information about my current research projects.Currently, I am working on finding funding for a peace-keeping and yoga curriculum that I have developed using writing, children’s literature, yoga, art and social action. Please click on “Global Peaceful Paths” to find out more information.

My other research interests include feminist methodology in which I represent data using poetic transcription. This study explores female faculty experiences in academia. I am also the principal investigator on a university-wide Quality Enhancement Grant where we use blogging to enhance critical and higher-order thinking skills in an undergraduate literacy in the content area course.I’ve also written an article on how to incorporate social action in a 6th grade classroom. It is published in the journal, “Democracy and Education”.
