Faculty Workshop Lesson Plans

Here you will find all of the lesson plans created and refined during our series of faculty writing workshops. These lesson plans are created by members of the SJSU faculty from several disciplines. After each plan is created, it is submitted to the workshop facilitators (Dr. Linda C. Mitchell and Michelle Hager) for review. Following several revisions, completed lesson plans are approved and posted below.
