| Abstract | Using "threshold concepts" (Meyer and Land) as a lens, this article examines several issues related to learning within and across two general education courses--one in writing and one in history--in which students were concurrently enrolled. Analysis of data from students and instructors (of the history course) suggests threshold concepts that are shared among history and writing courses; however, the data also indicate that the extent to which these shared concepts are enacted through instruction is somewhat inconsistent. The article ultimately suggests that threshold concepts might prove a productive frame through which to consider questions related to writing and transfer, and also to general education more broadly. (Contains 1 note.) (As Provided). |
