Abstract:

This statement outlines the executive committee’s position on the professional standards that promote quality education for full-time faculty, graduate students, temporary faculty, and part-time faculty. It stresses how important it is for both students and faculty to keep writing class sizes small and for writing programs to have adequately funded writing centers and support systems, space for conferencing with students, and opportunities for professional development.

Thomas, Trudelle. “Demystifying the Job Search: A Guide for Candidates.” CCC 40.3 (1989): 312-327.

Abstract:

The author suggests several guidelines for composition and rhetoric candidates entering the job market. She proposes that candidates approach the job search as a research project: they should know what kind of job they want, what kind of institution they want to teach at, and where they want to teach. She also emphasizes the importance of building professional identity by attending and presenting at conferences, submitting articles, and completing dissertations on schedule. The article also explains when and where interviews in composition and rhetoric jobs occur and how to approach both the interview and the campus visit.

Flower, Linda. “Cognition, Context, and Theory Building.” CCC 40.3 (1989): 282-311.

Abstract:

In this article, the author tries to bridge the gap between cognition and context – whether the composing act is more influenced by either individual cognition and personal values or social forces and cultural context – by suggesting that the two are always interconnected and informing one another. The author claims that moving beyond the debate between the two camps would help scholars understand more deeply how writing happens and help teachers guide their students through the hurdles, both personal and social, they face while writing. She offers three principles that show that cognition and context not only influence each other, but construct one another: that context provides cues to the individual writer, that context is always mediated by the individual writer, and that a writer’s purpose, though constrained and bounded, is always a meaningful rhetorical act. The article goes on to discuss observational research methodology and explain why observational research is essential in creating a theory that explains the intimate relationship between cognition and context.

Abstract:

This article attempts to create a cross-disciplinary theory of the creative act by juxtaposing the process movement, applied in composition theory and pedagogy, and design theory, used in fields like architecture and urban planning. The article explains the history and major tenets of both process and design theory, emphasizing that both value creativity as an important problem-solving tool, are concerned with the choices writers and designers make in the process of creating, emphasize the importance of context, and borrow theories from cognitive psychology and other fields. The author warns against urges in the field of composition to create a unified process theory, as no one model can fit all students’ needs and rhetorical situations.

Abstract:

The two authors conducted a study about the power, position, and responsibilities of writing program administrators by interviewing English department chairs. The survey showed that chairs want WPAs to be accessible and organized, to communicate well with faculty, and to train freshman composition instructors, but that chairs do not normally expect WPAs to assist in the creation of curricular policy. The authors believe that WPAs, as experts in composition and rhetoric, should have full control of the writing programs, act as co-chairs to the English department chair, and not be expected to take on an administrative role until they secure tenure.

Abstract:

In this article, the 1988 CCCC Chair’s Address, the author uses compares the two opening talks of the first CCCC convention to show how the convention struggled to redefine English and the first-year composition course. He reflects on the terms communication, composition, and conference to get a sense of where the field is now and what it could become in the future, stating that he is wary of calls for the creation of disciplinary boundaries in the field that could limit one of the field’s strengths, its diversity of interests and willingness to accept new ideas.

Abstract:

This article challenges teachers of writing to acquire a wider knowledge of the cultures and histories of their individual students, citing that instructors who are sensitive to their students’ cultural diversity are better able to equip them with the knowledge they need to succeed at the university. The author describes theoretical models for multicultural classrooms and offers several teaching exercises and strategies to use for the purpose of raising issues of cultural diversity in the college composition classroom.

Abstract:

This article argues against the idea of a coherent, unified academic discourse community and suggests that creating a binary between the language of the university and the language of students makes it difficult for scholars to talk about how or why people would move between these two communities. The author proposes that teachers of writing show students that adopting an additional discourse community does not cancel out their previous discourse community; rather, it only adds another layer of complexity to their use of language, and students should be taught to be conscious of and value the competing discourses that make up their own unique voice. The author also urges others in the field of composition to be aware of the conflicting discourses within the university community and suggests using community to refer to specific and local groups instead of broader ones.

Abstract:

This article uses a study of 194 undergraduate English major programs at American colleges and universities to answer two questions: what do undergraduate English major students perceive the field of English to be and what knowledge from the field do they take with them into their careers. The study found that most undergraduate English major programs primarily emphasize literature and literary analysis instead of creative writing, composition and rhetoric, and linguistics. The author argues that to better prepare students for future careers in the field, which require knowledge in subjects other than literature, undergraduate English major courses should provide more opportunities for students to take courses and have tracks in writing, rhetoric, and linguistics.

Abstract:

The author, using Freud’s analogy between teaching, psychoanalysis, and government, explores both the power relations in basic writing classrooms and the ways that psychoanalytic theory can enlighten composition teaching practices. This article explains how the theoretical model of Lacanian psychoanalytic pedagogy fails in the writing classroom because it does not take into account both the authoritative role a writing instructor has over students and the lack of training writing teachers have to deal with the issues that arise in exploratory personal writing.

Abstract:

This article uses the author’s own observations of an introductory composition class to investigate the dynamics of workshops in college composition classrooms, showing that the rhetorical situation present in the workshop is always changing and must be addressed in discussions surrounding the pedagogical value of workshops. Her study shows that workshops are unpredictable because each writing class contains different students who bring different histories and needs to the table. Students develop their own voices within this polyphony and simultaneously become part of a larger classroom community. The author also argues that fruitful workshops arise when instructors are willing to relinquish some of their control of the classroom to give the class the freedom and opportunity to direct their learning.

Abstract:

The author, who has worked with several publishing companies, uses seven case studies of publisher-author relations to show the degree of power publishers have in the creation of textbooks. He argues that publishing houses are driven in their decisions by economics. The article recommends that authors always consult with a lawyer during contract negotiations, submit minimum proposals instead of full manuscripts, and try to work with publishers who are interested in the value of their work.

About

The CCC Online Archive was designed by Collin Brooke, past CCC Online Archive editor, and Derek Mueller at Syracuse University primarily as a research tool, an online supplement to the journal College Composition and Communication. Among other things, the designers provided an additional point of access to the content of the journal, multiple search protocols for exploring that content, and means of surveying and generating metadata for the journal. Their guiding principles were access and visibility, in the context of making CCC both increasingly and variously available to the scholars in the field. This content was previously available through the Syracuse University website, however, in August of 2011 it was moved to this more permanent location within the CCCC/NCTE site to make it accessible to CCCC members.

Finding Content

There are two ways to find content in the CCC Online Archive:

1. Use the site search in the upper right corner of this page to find content with Key Words/Tags, author names, and/or article information.
     
2. We have compiled a master list (PDF) of all issues that are available in the Archive. The CCC Online Archive volume numbers in the links correspond to the volume numbers of the CCC issues that they refer to.
