To University of North Georgia's Professor Lisa Diehl, a liberal arts education at university must include learning that empowers students and prepares them to deal with complexity, diversity, and change. It also helps students develop a sense of social responsibility, strong and transferable intellectual and practical skills, and a demonstrated ability to apply their knowledge in real-world settings. Thus, this approach to composition should empower students to gain a more comprehensive understanding of poverty, privilege, race, and social status through the perspective of others, as well as allow them to examine their own thinking too.

In this session, Professor Diehl will present her social justice composition course plan, which focuses on enhancing her students' capacity for critically assessing the quality of their own thinking and how it may impact others. Her lesson plan is designed to build comprehension skills through engagement with multiple forms of media, as well as to develop and strengthen critical thinking skills that promote analysis and reflection to improve communication skills and to develop leadership characteristics needed to successfully engage with a global society.
