J.5The Power of Stories in WAC Classrooms: Models and Assignments for Activist and Justice-Oriented Projects Presented By: Traci Gardner, Virginia Tech Teaching Demonstration | Seminar Room II This presentation asks students to become agents of change in the WAC classroom by asking writers to tell stories as part of collective action projects in their disciplinary fields. The presenter will begin by showing how to introduce students to collective action in the workplace and in professional disciplines, sharing classroom-ready examples that demonstrate the power of stories in disciplinary-based social movements. The presentation then demonstrates activist and justice-oriented projects that use social media to share stories that encourage others to participate in social action movements. Activities focus on microblogging on Twitter, video storytelling on TikTok and YouTube and photo essays on Instagram. The presenter will provide links to assignments and supporting materials.
