This edited collection positions writing at the center of
interdisciplinary higher education, and explores how writing
instruction, writing scholarship, and writing program
administration bring STEM and the humanities together in
meaningful, creative, and beneficial ways. Writing professionals
are at the forefront of a cross-pollination between STEM (Science,
Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and the arts and
humanities. In their work as educators, scholars, and
administrators, they collaborate with colleagues in engineering,
scientific, technical, and health disciplines, offer new degree
programs that allow students to bring the humanities to bear on
design experiments, and build an academic culture that promotes a
vision of the humanities in the twenty-first century, as well as a
vision of technology that is decidedly human. This collection
surveys and promotes that work through chapters focused on writing
instruction, writing scholarship, and writing program
administration, covering topics that include data-driven writing
courses, public science communication, non-traditional college
students, creative writing, gamification, skills transfer, and
Writing Across the Curriculum programs. Writing STEAM will be
essential reading for scholars, instructors, and administrators in
writing studies, rhetoric and composition, STEM, and a variety of
interdisciplinary programs; it will aid in teacher training for
both humanities and STEM courses focused on writing and
communication.
