Many teachers, departments, writing centers, and faculty lounges have a file drawer full of workable assignments. These are often used to help new colleagues, inspire those who want to try new approaches, and "save" those who don't have time or inclination to reinvent the wheel.

The WAC Clearinghouse Teaching Exchange provides a space for sharing such resources for teachers who use writing -- formal or informal, discipline specific or transdisciplinary -- as part of their classes. Please feel free to browse through these offerings, which are cross-referenced by discipline and pedagogic function. We hope you find something educational, provocative, informative, useful .... And please consider sending in assignments that have worked well for you. We'd also appreciate your comments on the Exchange.
