Students immerse themselves in the study and practice of multicultural fiction and poetry, fostering a broad appreciation of diverse voices and storytelling styles. Through engaging discussions, students will explore themes and techniques from various cultural perspectives. Writing exercises encourage experimentation across genres, allowing students to discover and refine their unique voices. In a supportive workshop environment, students will share their original work, receive constructive feedback, and engage in collaborative refinement. The course culminates with students compiling their work into an online portfolio and presenting selected pieces in a final reading with peers.
