Student interview for Place-Based WAC/WID writing instruction in Tropical Plant and Soil Sciences, clip 7 of 14
Abstract: This item includes a segment of a student interview in a Writing Intensive course in Tropical Plant and Soil Sciences at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. The interview was conducted in 2014, and in this clip the interviewee is responding to the question '(How) did this course change you as a person, as a writer, as a scholar, if at all?' ; Brief excerpt from interview: I'm now aware of other [energy] alternatives . . . I'm able to make decisions that better my lifestyle but also ensure there's a future for everyone else to come . . . We related a lot of the topics back to Hawaiʻi because we're in a location with an abundance of resources that aren't being fully utilized . . . Those are issues that were controversial because you had to weigh the cost of being a more sustainable island and not having to rely on outside fuels versus protecting the organisms we have here that are only found here and ensuring that the people are happy.
