Discussion Questions

  1. How do faculty or programs on your campus support students as they transition to workplace writing? You might think about units or offices on your campus that might be interested in collaborating with you to collect this information.
  2. Do your recent alumni feel supported in their transition from college to the workplace?
  3. Depending on what you discover in questions 1 and 2, what kinds of changes might you make or what faculty development initiatives might you create to further support students in becoming effective workplace writers?
