Rochelle Rodrigo, Cristina D. Ramírez
2017 Technical Communication Quarterly  
Relying on Wiggins and McThighe's (2005) outcomes based "backward design," we have the end goal of developing Penrose's (2012) professional characteristics of "expertise" and "autonomy" in our P&TW instructors. To do so, we're using Spinuzzi's (2005) outline of participatory design methods to develop the professional community Penrose outlines as the space that fosters professionalism while also revising and maintaining curricular materials and online master courses.
