Integrated Reading and Writing (IRW) at SFSU

Introduction: The M.A. Program in Composition instilled in me the importance of teaching reading concurrently with writing to strengthen students’ confidence in both. I teach annotation explicitly, and in various forms; and I frame various research, peer review, and other activities from a reading strategy framework.
