Abstract

This article presents an effective model for a manageable interdisciplinary project that shows students the connections among art, English, and other disciplines; gives composition students an external audience for their writing; and emphasizes the importance of research in the process of creating arguments and art. This interdisciplinary project model provides the opportunity for interested faculty to engage in interdisciplinary teaching without directly challenging institutional structures.
