Writ 2 is a first-year composition course. We take a "writing about writing" approach. Students research topics within Writing Studies and learn about the concept of scholarly conversation. Students pick a topic within the field, find journal articles focused on their topic, and then create a conversation between their sources in a genre of their choice. We see the Wikipedia assignment working well with this assignment.
