Welcome to Working with Student Teams, a short online module designed to help you work more efficiently with student teams within your classes.

WOVE is an acronym that stands for "written, oral, visual, and electronic" communication. More commonly referred to as "multimodal communication," this pedagogy serves as the basis for ISUComm's efforts toward student-centered, contemporary curriculum reform. In the new foundation courses that ISUComm has developed, ISUComm is building upon an integrated approach to writing instruction that has been underway at ISU for some time. Almost all composition classes use electronic classrooms; all teach students how to engage in small group discussions and oral critiques with peers; many sections of these courses incorporate brief oral presentations; and many of these classes now address some design aspects of written texts, such as headings and page layout. By bringing WOVE pedagogy into their classrooms, teachers provide all students with the kind of communication instruction that prepares them to communicate with expertise in multiple settings and with multiple media.
