STATEMENT OF TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
My teaching practices are inextricably tied to my work within writing centers. As both a tutor and
eventual director of the Writing Research and Technology Zone (WRT Zone), I began to recognize the
necessity of connecting the support students received in tutoring sessions to knowledge and skills gained
in their writing courses. Collaboration between both areas supports the needs of individual students (H.
Gardner, C. McLoughlin, C. Bereiter). I have found that students must be provided with multiple
learning opportunities in order to develop and transfer knowledge in useful and practical ways. By
grounding my teaching in writing center theory, I create classrooms focused upon Active Learning
Theory. Active learning encourages transfer of knowledge through multiple opportunities for writing that
builds upon each other, in particular, scaffolding of assignments. Additionally, through Writing Across
the Curriculum (WAC) and Writing in the Disciplines (WID) pedagogy, I create discipline-specific
writing instruction by implementing low and high stakes writing assignments focused upon academic,
professional and personal development. Working together, my approach of active learning and
WAC/WID pedagogy cultivate clear connections between writing and research to students’ academic
endeavors and beyond.
Active learning requires teachers to create classroom activities that are student centered, practical, and
easily transferred to new environments. Through scaffolded assignments, students practice writing for
both informal and formal purposes. In this context, students are encouraged to see themselves as novices
entering into a new field. They are asked to question and play with writing, research, and ideas. For
example, I ask students to write an informal research proposal filled with ideas, questions, and concerns.
Students begin with an initial investigation into their research topic through research annotations. Next,
they write an informal introduction in which I encourage questions and concerns as a side-narrative
within their writing. After feedback from me, students build upon their introduction and submit an initial
overview of research previously done on their topic. Through in-class and one-on-one conferencing,
students revise their proposal a fourth time and begin to move further along into their analysis of research
by including a set of research questions they have honed during student/teacher conferences. A fifth and
sixth revision, with conferences built in, have students developing a document that matures from a
question-riddled draft to a formal research proposal. Students pull ideas and content from their informal
writing towards the productions of a formal assignment. In this way, scaffolding builds upon past,
current, and future knowledge. Heavily reliant upon writing within and outside of the classroom, my
teaching inspires students to view their writing as an ongoing process connected to their role as both
personal and academic writers.
Equally important to my teaching is the role of writing within one’s own discipline. I began to realize
the need for discipline-specific writing instruction through my experiences as the director of the WRT
Zone. Students often came to sessions with limited knowledge of the discipline specific writing and
research they were expected to deftly manipulate in their Writing Intensive courses. Because of this,
students had a incomplete understanding of how to actively participate as dynamic researchers and writers
in their discipline. It was in these moments that students failed to see how their writing and research
connected to their academic careers. As a result, they often felt cheated and angry. Acknowledging
students’ concerns and needs, I began to develop a WAC/WID based classroom that provided students
with opportunities to move from general to discipline specific writing instruction. Consistent with my
pedagogical use of active learning and scaffolding, I have created assignments that provide students with
opportunities to investigate and practice discipline specific writing both through high and low stakes
assignments in order to connect writing and learning to students’ individual needs.
Jule Wallis / Teaching Portfolio / 9
For instance, in ENG 3010 I ask students to interview professionals in their field, thus establishing
personal connections between their coursework and prospective profession. The assignment begins with
low stakes writing through the drafting of emails and interview questions in class. The informal, low
stakes writing class work leads to formal email requests and eventual interview of a professional within
the student’s field of study. Students compile their interview research to write a qualitative, reflective
analysis of writing, research, genre, communication, lexis, and persona in their discipline. After
completion of the assignment, students have a better understanding of how to successfully become active
members of their chosen field. By bridging the gap between their professional expectations and
knowledge of their chosen career, students are able to make better-informed decisions regarding their
field, and on occasion, a student even chooses to consider an alternative academic focus. Regardless of
the outcome, this semester-long research proposal provides students with invaluable insight into the
power of investigative writing and research within their own field, and it helps to underscore the position
of writing as both discipline specific and interdisciplinary. Students are able to make connections between
what they had previously understood to be disparate fields and contexts. This invariably leads to
increased understanding and success within their disciplines. Additionally, once students begin to
understand the “rules” of their field, they are able to “break” those rules in order to make connections
between disciplines, academic discourses, and professional and personal writing and research. A
newfound familiarity with discipline specific rules, and the ability personalize them for their own
purposes, inspires confidence within students as they begin to find a voice in a new discursive
community.
My pedagogical approach encourages student success in many forms. Based upon the growing demand
and success of students who took my WAC/WID ENG 3010, in concert with a programmatic assessment
of ENG 3010, there was a department wide curriculum re-evaluation of ENG 3010 and a subsequent
common pedagogical implementation of my WAC/WID focus for ENG 3010. On a more personal level,
through my use of active learning and discipline specific writing instruction, students see the practical
application of the writing and research they completed in my courses. For example, student proposals
have been submitted and accepted for research grant funding (Rafatt Dallo-Chemistry, Tajwar KhanPhysics, Tarick El-Baba-Biology), internships (Kyungjin Kim-Pricewaterhouse Coopers, Sali KestoPricewaterhouse Coopers, Jerrold Soward-WSU research assistance in Chemistry, Tarick El-Baba-WSU
research assistance in Biology) , scholarships (Amber Height-Hamm; Sara Mahmood- Wilfred Kean
Memorial Scholarship, R. Gene Richter, Hamm Scholarship; Shayan Momin-Irvine D. Reid, Academy of
Scholars), Fulbright (Shayan Momin), and Graduate work (Amber Height-Business, Layal AbbadiPsychology, Resa Waldecker-Library Sciences, Phil Zivku-Psychology, Chantel Fornier-Chemistry, Sali
Kesto-Business). I am also quite humbled by my students’ ongoing contact, emails, requests for support,
and visits to the WRT Zone. I feel that their continued engagement with me and with the WRT Zone best
speaks to their newfound and ongoing belief that writing is not static; that it has a myriad of possibilities
and contexts inside and outside of a classroom. When active learning, discipline specific writing, and
student success are at the forefront of student learning, only then are students able to find validity and
transferability of writing knowledge and skills to all aspects of their lives. Within my classes students
realize that active learning and discipline specific writing works for them on a personal level. For them,
writing becomes meaningful, ongoing, and multidimensional. This acknowledgement that my teaching
transfers beyond the classroom to students’ lives in relevant and personalized ways fulfills my dreams as
a teacher and justifies the validity of my pedagogy.
WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY (2000-2012) STUDENT EVALUATION OF TEACHING (SETs)
Numbers listed under “Quality of Instructor” are the “mean” score. Number listed under “Average of all
Categories” are the mean of all “mean” scores for questions related to the quality of instructor and of
Jule Wallis / Teaching Portfolio / 10
teaching (i.e., all questions under the “Summary Course Evaluation” and “Instructor FeedbackDiagnostic” rubrics on the SET form). The mean of the course ratings for each course taught throughout
the year was averaged. For example, all course ratings for ENG 3010 years taught were averaged to
represent a higher than average course rating score. Required courses with a score of 12 or higher are
exceptional marks. My course ratings for both Intermediate Composition (ENG 3010) and ENG 6010 are
above 12.

This class taught me pedagogy and how to APPLY pedagogy to different areas of teaching. I had never
been given this background. I always created hypothetical teaching assignments without any real reason
for why I created them. Now I feel that I can create assignments that matter
Ms. Wallis was the most enthusiastic teacher I have had. She was always there for her students and really
wanted her students to learn and apply their knowledge to teaching.
Ms. Wallis knew her stuff. I was always amazed at her ability to help every student with his/her projects
and she really took the time to work with us individually. I wish there were more students like Ms.
Wallis
This class was fast paced and quite rigorous. Even so, the course taught me a lot about teaching and
tutoring. I plan on working in the writing center as a volunteer next year. That is how valuable the
tutoring component was for me as a teacher.
Very organized class. Love the Google site and the blog we used. I was able to work ahead if I wanted
to, which was key for my busy schedule.
Always had multiple steps for assignments and constant feedback. Impossible to fail this class if you
worked HARD and completed the assignments.
Feedback time was amazing! I don’t know how she managed to give us feedback usually two days after
an assignment was due, but she did.
Gave us in depth feedback on drafts. She meant what she said when she defined writing as “works in
progress.”
She was an amazing professor and during a time when I was teaching and going to school, I never
dreaded coming to class. She always kept the class going and interesting. Her lectures give great
information to the class that is useful and also interesting.
Best teacher I've ever had hands down. Really easy to communicate with and down to earth. Will go out
of her way to help you. Very flexible and more than fair with your grades. I suggest taking professor
Wallis for English 6010 if given a chance
Always enthusiastic and more than willing to sit down with students or have individual conferences. I
thought the course was the hardest course I have taken yet, but I am glad I did.
She is AMAZING! There is seriously no other words to describe her. She’s so understanding and explains
her lessons clearly. Best class I've ever taken at Wayne. I wish every professor was like her.

This course taught me a great deal about writing in my field. Each project taught me something new and
each project logically followed each other. Although I do not particularly enjoy writing research, it is an
integral part of my future career. The course was laid out very nicely and flowed well logically.
Jule Wallis / Teaching Portfolio / 12
She is really a great professor and I am so glad I took her for a writing class because I learned a great deal
of how to write research papers in my field which has definitely prepared me for the future.
Your encouragement motivated me to work more and better throughout the semester. I also liked how my
first project made me think about my future discourse community.
This course was very helpful and allowed me to expand my knowledge on the writing specific to my own
field.
The teaching was great, as was the curriculum. The focus of this class will help me with writing in the
future and in my own profession.
I really enjoyed this class and learned skills I will use for the rest of my life. Jule Wallis was an
incredible professor and was very kind.
I enjoyed this class because it helped me better understand the writing done in my discourse! I am so glad
I took this class with you because it was relevant to my own career. ALL ENGLISH CLASSES
SHOULD BE THIS WAY!!!!
We were always given chances for revision. We had to work for it, but it was worth it. I increased my
grades and I really learned how to write. I never knew writing was something you learned to do til now.
This course was very organized. I love the Google site. It helped me stay organized and reminded me of
assignments that were due.
She gave us feedback on EVERYTHING! And quick! I always had to wait at least two weeks. She gave
us grades and comments in days…
You were amazing, made clear presentations, were always happy and there for us. You did not cheat me
out of my education!
I never felt intimidated to ask even the silliest of questions. You were always so nice and happy. I had a
lot of fun in your class and also learned! Crazy! I know what I learned in my class will help me in the
future.
All information introduced was done so very clearly. I never wondered what was expected of me.
Grading was more than fair. Jule gave quick feedback and grading. The comments made about my
writing were very helpful and made my work much stronger.
The course is very rigorous. It has a lot of work, but it is understandable that a research based English
class would be this way. The professor made it manageable and the style of teaching she used was very
helpful and helped us all learn in a fun way.
Enthusiastic about writing and research and enthusiastic about students and what they have to say and
what they need.
She has a really helpful teaching style that helped me understand writing by breaking it down into steps.
This class definitely improved my skills as a writer.

Workload was heavy, but it was relevant and easy to understand.
Overall I thought this was a good class. Professor Wallis is a fantastic professor and the class was well
organized and easy to understand. The workload wasn’t too heavy throughout the semester and I would
definitely recommend taking ENG 3010 with Professor Wallis

APPENDIX B
WRT Zone director utilizes Baseline assessment and SPSS statistical systems to track student perceptions
of writing pre and post tutoring sessions.
Assessment numbers indicate that after five or more sessions, students begin to self-assess the areas of
writing help they need. They begin to develop lexis for writing, research, and revision. This selfassessment grows as students continue to visit the WRT Zone.
