Profile
Anne Ellen Geller joined the faculty at St. John's University in
2007, having previously taught at Clark University for eight
years. She teaches undergraduate and graduate courses in
non-fiction, rhetoric and composition and writing studies.
As Director of Writing Across the Curriculum in the Institute for
Writing Studies, she works with faculty from all disciplines to
support the teaching of writing at all levels of instruction in all
departments. Her current research interests include
co-authoring, the application of principles of dialogue in English
studies and writing across the curriculum, and questions of how
writing is integrated across the disciplines and how dialogue
around writing can influence departmental, institutional, and
disciplinary beliefs about student and faculty scholarship.
She is co-author of The Everyday Writing Center: A Community of
Practice (Utah State University Press, 2007) and "DEAR
COAUTHORS: Epistolary Revelations of Five Writing Center Directors"
in Junctures: The Journal for Thematic Dialogue, Issue 10
(June, 2008), with Michele Eodice, Frankie Condon, Meg Carroll and
Beth Boquet. She is also co-author of "Workshopping to
Practice Scientific Terms," for Teaching with Student
Texts, with Frank Cantelmo (biology).
Her 2005 article "Tick, Tock, Next: Finding Epochal Time in the
Writing Center," an inquiry into how theoretical and cultural
conceptions and constructions of time affect teaching and learning
at individual, classroom, program and institutional levels,
appeared in The Writing Center Journal (25.1) and won International
Writing Centers Association Outstanding Scholarship Award.
