Opis

Community college students varying experiences in the composition classroom allow multi-modal texts to bridge between new concepts and familiar texts, creating student engagement and agency in the composition classroom. By exploring the general characteristics that many community college students and community college campuses share, it is possible to gain a better understanding of how connecting campuses and pedagogies to students daily lives can create a deeper sense of agency in the composition classroom
