Christine: Here is the article I mentioned earlier. It looks like he did exactly what you were suggesting...polled the campus to get an idea of the types of writing assignments other disciplines were assigning. He talks about how he extended this conversation to the campus via presentations and how he used the information in his own class (deconstructing assignments). I also have a lot of information from Perkins and Salomon regarding transfer theory, as it supports my theory of using writing about writing to help basic writers establish a strong writing identity, which they can then transfer to other discourse communities.
