Multilingual AWD Sections

About Multilingual Sections

Several sections of Advanced Writing in the Disciplines are designated for students whose first or strongest language is not English.

Typically, these sections:

• offer more one-to-one attention because of smaller class size (15 students vs. 19 students in a regular AWD section);
• offer a community in which multilingual students often feel more comfortable participating in class;
• offer pacing designed to meet the needs of multilingual writers;
• often include cultural introductions to pop-culture, humor, and contemporary events;
• often provide closer attention to specific language use and vocabulary.

Registration

Students who wish to register will need to fill out the Multilingual AWD Course Survey.
