YouTube is my Friend
If I haven't said it in class yet, I promise I will..."YouTube is Your Friend." Just like Google! ;-)
1. Yes, the scientist in you will be uncomfortable with a lot of composition scholarship. We are definitely more qualitative and later to the empirical methods party!
2. You might want to do some research on "student success strategies/skills" courses. What you want to teach (info lit, along with school/life skills). Those courses exist. What becomes difficult is who is "required" to take them, who pays for it (a lot of times financial aid will not), whether the credits count towards degrees, whether teaching the skills outside of a context works, etc. I've been thinking about this and I'm actually working on a project about this stuff. We could chat sometime about it!
