Adapting VALUEs Tracing the Life of a Rubric through Institutional Ethnography by Jennifer Grouling Perspectives on Writing Series Copublished with the WAC Clearinghouse Text Li Adapting VALUEs traces the use of the American Association of Colleges and Universities’ VALUE rubric for written communication at two small universities. Through the lens of institutional ethnography, Jennifer Grouling examines how faculty and administrators adapted the rubric for their own purposes and writing programs. Throughout the book, Grouling explores the ways in which faculty members’ interactions on committees, views of the classroom, disciplinary affiliation, and racial privilege impacted their views of this national rubric. Overall, Adapting VALUEs offers valuable insights into the power of the rubric as both a national and a local text that dictates pedagogical and administrative practice.
