Welcome to the WAC Bibliography. The bibliography, developed and presented in collaboration with CompPile, was developed to support teachers across the disciplines who are interested in using writing and speaking in their courses; scholars who are interested in WAC theory and research; and program administrators, designers, and developers who have interests in the latest work in faculty outreach, program design, and assessment.

Annotation: This article discusses the effects of one writing-to-learn activity, the student observation journal, as it was applied to the Introductory Astronomy Course at Gardner-Webb University. The author concludes that these logs have favorably enhanced the course, allowing the instructor a means of assessing student progress and allowing the students to receive feedback on the material at hand.
