Abstract:

Radical feminist textuality of the 1960s and today provides a suggestive example of networked and collectively literate action, action dependent on the constant and visible contextualization of self and writing within the discourses that shape us. In this essay, I argue that an articulation of radical feminist textuality can benefit both scholarship and classroom, in that it situates writers as rhetorical agents who can write, resist, and, finally act within a network of discourses and identifications.

Price, Margaret. “Beyond ‘Gotcha!’: Situating Plagiarism in Policy and Pedagogy.” CCC. 54.1 (2002): 88-115.

Abstract:

Plagiarism is difficult, if not impossible, to define. In this paper, I argue for a contextsensitive understanding of plagiarism by analyzing a set of written institutional policies and suggesting ways that they might be revised. In closing, I offer examples of classroom practices to help teach a concept of plagiarism as situated in context.

Kumamoto, Chikako D. “Bakhtin’s Others and Writing As Bearing Witness to the Eloquent ‘I.'” CCC. 54.1 (2002): 66-87.

Abstract:

Mikhail Bakhtin’s dialogism and his irenic view of the cultural other inform this article that builds the multiple voice of the eloquent “I” as a dialectic self-construction where codes of meaning are inscribed. The eloquent “I” cultivates a deepened self-dialogue and offers students an epistemological and rhetorical discipline, bearing witness to their imaginative, meaningful interiority and their written, public articulation of it.

Abstract:

The role of the professor in community service writing courses factors into the teaching, research, and overall institutional viability of these initiatives, yet too little has been written about the role of the professor in service learning. Through an analysis of recent publications on service learning and data gathered during an outreach initiative at University of California, Berkeley, this article reveals a few of the obstacles that hinder the sustainability of community literacy programs. I find that professors in service learning courses can better sustain these initiatives when they view the community site as a place where their research, teaching, and service contribute to a community’s self-defined needs and students’ learning.

In an attempt to bring composition studies into a more thoroughgoing discussion of the place of visual literacy in the writing classroom, I argue that throughout the history of writing instruction in this country the terms of debate typical in discussions of visual literacy and the teaching of writing have limited the kinds of assignments we might imagine for composition.

Abstract:

After reviewing my career as a teacher of composition and literature and as a writing program administrator of writing across the curriculum, I discuss the potential of poetry across the curriculum as an important tool for writing “against” the curriculum of academic discourse. When they write poetry, students often express meaningful thoughts and emotions not readily available to them in disciplinary languages and contexts.

Abstract:

This essay proposes an alternative invention strategy for research-based argumentative writing. By investigating the coincidental usage of the term “whatever” in hip-hop, theory, and composition studies, the essay proposes a whatever-pedagogy identified as “hip-hop pedagogy,” a writing practice that models itself after digital sampling’s rhetorical strategy of juxtaposition.

Abstract:

This article represents stories of eight former composition students, Appalachian working class women, who move from silence in the academy to voice in their communities to a more self-confident identity without destroying the community from which they came. The author argues that compositionists need to consider the two-edged nature of literacy; how literacy serves first generation, nontraditional learners; the intergenerational effects of literacy; the importance of expressivist writing as a transition into academic literacy; and the importance of region and class in multicultural conversations.

Abstract:

Grounded in theories of feminist research practices and in two empirical studies we conducted separately, our argument is that seeing reciprocity as a context-based process of definition and re-definition of the relationship between participants and researcher helps us understand how research projects can benefit participants in ways that they desire.

Jointly, these facts suggest that real punctuation decision rules are very different from and probably much simpler than the rules we teach. This article argues that the punctuation system does have features that generally make systems learnable, such as binary contrasts, limitation of parallel categories to seven or fewer options, and repeated application of the same criterion to different kinds of entities. The simplicity that allows some readers to learn this system unconsciously also makes it possible to figure out consciously the system’s underlying information-management rationales, which in turn motivate both conscious learning and use.

Abstract

“Made Not Only in Words: Composition in a New Key” is the print version of the multimodal address that former CCCC Chair Kathleen Yancey gave at the 2004 CCCC convention. Discussing the myriad forms and purposes that writing can take today, she asks us to re-examine our beliefs about what writing is and how it should be taught.

Abstract

In this essay, I analyze Kenneth Burke’s Cold War pedagogy and explore the ways it connects to (and complicates) Paulo Freire’s conception of praxis. I argue that Burke’s theory and practice adds a rhetorical nuance to critical reflection and then envision how his 1955 educational concerns gain significance for teachers and scholars today who, like Burke, live in a time “when war is always threatening.”

Abstract

This essay examines the writing done at the University of New Hampshire in the period between 1928 and 1942. It argues that while there was extensive writing from personal experience, this writing did not perform the “turn” where the writer claims a new form of self-understanding. It goes on to suggest that work with this largely observational genre may develop important skills for the young writers.

This article suggests that literacy development in immigrant, refugee, and other historically marginalized communities can be understood as a response to rhetorical struggles in contexts of civic life. To illustrate this “rhetorical conception of literacy,” the article examines a collection of anti-immigrant letters published in a Midwestern newspaper between 1985 and 1995 and the responses to these by a group of Southeast Asian Hmong refugee writers. The essay explores the relationships of content, form, language, and audience in the two sets of letters to show how the anti-immigrant rhetoric became the basis for new forms of public writing in the Hmong community.

Abstract

Using Burkean theory, I claim that Malcolm X brilliantly exposed the rhetoric and epistemology of whiteness as he rejected the African American jeremiad: a dominant form of African American oratory for more than 150 years. Whiteness theory served as the basis for Malcolm X’s alternative literacy, which raises important questions that literacy theorists have yet to consider.

Abstract:

The authors attempt to confront the construction of “whiteness” as a silent but potent epistemology that pervades writing instruction and contributes to racism within academic institutions. Pedagogical practices as well as university policies are discussed, focusing particularly on the subject positions of “black” and “white” for both students and instructors.

Abstract:

Writing instructors often identify clich�s as the weakest spots in student writing, but looking at students’ uses of clich� in context can teach us about their struggles to fashion new knowledge from what they already believe to be true. Most importantly, writing instructors who examine their responses to clich� (or any other “undesirable” aspect of student writing) can learn about the ways in which their pedagogical practices can deafen them to what students are trying to say.

Abstract:

Composition has neglected the circulation of writing by figuring classroom life as a middle-class family drama. Cultural studies approaches to teaching writing have sought, with mixed success, to transcend this domestic space. I draw on Marx’s Grundrisse for a conceptual model of how circulation materializes contradictory social relations and how the contradictions between exchange value and use value might be taken up in writing classrooms to expand public forums and popular participation in civic life.

Hawhee, Debra. “Composition History and the Harbrace College Handbook.” CCC 50.3 (1999): 504-523.

Abstract:

Hawhee writes a 65-year critical history of John C. Hodges’ The Harbrace College Handbook to examine how it 1) writes the discipline of composition, and 2) creates particular subjectivities for both teacher and student. Her research is based on the John C. Hodges archival collection held at the University of Tennessee Knoxville Special Collections Library.

Abstract:

Yancey uses a wave metaphor for the overlapping trends in writing assessment since 1950. Assessment as a practice has become a rhetorical act with ideological and ethical dimensions, and continues to evolve from focus on singular writing acts by individuals to multiple writing samples collected in portfolios, consideration of writer identity, programmatic assessment, and knowledge-making in the teaching of and research about writing.

Abstract:

This history of writing centers, and their precursor the “writing lab,” teases apart the differences between writing centers identified with methods to empower critical thinking and writing centers identified as a site for discursive regulation. Boquet asks compelling questions about the future of writing centers and the need for further critically intellectual investigation into the relationship between writing center work and the teaching of writing and vice versa.

Abstract:

Not at the “margins” of the profession, the authors urge readers to think of teaching at open-admission site as central to the historical formation of the field, particularly in terms of creating equal access to higher education. This essay is intended to be a corrective for commonly held opinions about open-admission first-year composition students, classrooms, and teaching professionals.

Abstract:

Selfe observes that deeply ingrained humanist traditions keep composition professionals from paying attention to the linkages between technology and literacy. Discomfort with technology has kept it in the background, making increased educational and social inequities resulting from the tech-literacy link less visible, implying an unethical negligence on the part of the profession.

Abstract:

Daniell shows how the two debates in literacy scholarship of the 1980s, cultural literacy (E.D. Hirsch) and the Great Divide theory, are challenged by ethnographic narratives and social construction ideology. She suggests that thinking and writing about literacy in context-specific, material locations makes it more appropriate to speak of literacies rather than a single identifiable literacy.

Abstract:

Roemer, et al lay out past and present debates about the first-year writing requirement and answer back to pro-abolitionist claims that FYC hinders progress toward disciplinary respect and prestige for composition. They argue that composition’s strong scholarship and pedagogy that has come from working with and through issues like interdisciplinarity, diversity, and politics of access through language and literacy that arise in the complex student populations that occur in FYC.

Porter, James E., et. al. “Institutional Critique: A Rhetorical Methodology for Change.” CCC 51.4 (2000): 610-642.

Abstract:

We offer institutional critique as an activist methodology for changing institutions. Since institutions are rhetorical entities, rhetoric can be deployed to change them. In its effort to counter oppressive institutional structures, the field of rhetoric and composition has focused its attention chiefly on the composition classroom, on the department of English, and on disciplinary forms of critique. Our focus shifts the scene of action and argument to professional writing and to public discourse, using spatial methods adapted from postmodern geography and critical theory.

Abstract:

When a composition teacher incorporated community-based writing assignments into her course, she found that the curriculum did not support students’ transitions to nonacademic settings. Her success in transforming the curriculum suggests that the writing classroom can function not only as a site for “general writing skills instruction” but also for analysis of rhetorical variation.

Abstract:

A case study of the evaluation of a three-year pilot project in mainstreaming basic writers at City College of New York suggests that the social and political contexts of a project need to be taken into account in the earliest stages of evaluation. This project’s complex evaluation report was virtually ignored by college administrators.

Abstract:

This article asserts that personal essays by black feminist writers such as June Jordan might be used to teach first-year and advanced student writers how to connect their personal and social identities in ways that will enhance the rhetorical impact of their writing while transcending mere “confession” or self-indulgence.

Abstract:

Segal, Par�, , Brent, and Vipond are rhetoricians doing workplace ethnography in the fields of medicine, social work, and psychology. In this essay they explore the usefulness and ethics of returning their observations to their study subjects. They particularly focus on resisting the “colonial, self-righteous attitude evoked by [their] title” of academic rhetorician and researcher (73).

Abstract:

This is a narrative of the development of student-directed placement in non-credit bearing preparatory English classes, asking “students to measure their own perceptions of themselves against [faculty] expectations” (62). Royer and Gilles describe the system’s elegance, simplicity and “rightness,” as well as its appeal to “everybody”: students, instructors, and administration.

Abstract:

Prendergast examines the ingrained racialized sensibility of American society, and focuses on the “absent absence” of writing about racism in composition. She analyzes writing strategies and genre choices of critical race theorists Derek Bell and Patricia Williams and suggests that composition should participate in deliberate dissonance about racialized education, developing theories about race that “do not reinscribe people of color as either foreign or invisible, nor leave whiteness uninvestigated” (51).

Abstract:

Reynolds extends investigation into composition’s assumptions about place and space by exposing the role of discourse in the social construction of writing spaces and work environments. She uses scholarship in postmodern geography to identify the tendency of space becoming transparent as technology induces time-space compression, masking the need to address and remedy the politics and power imbalances evident in the debilitated spaces and places where writing, writing instruction, and knowledge-making take place.

Abstract:

Huot claims many composition teachers are frustrated by or uninterested in writing assessment in part because current writing assessments suffer from positivist assumptions. Tests therefore are invalid and problematic. To solve these problems, Huot proposes a theory of writing assessment that would lead to testing measures. New writing assessments would have a recognizable theoretical foundation and take into account localized context and rhetoric as assessment factors.

Abstract:

Minock analyzes outcomes of the WAC program she directed at Wayne State University and argues for a pragmatic rhetoric of integrative theory and practice to help establish effective WAC programs. She finds that WAC faculty achieve consensus on grading standards but not on giving advice to students on how to improve their essays. To improve WAC effectiveness, she proposes a theory informed practice that forms a hermeneutic: a “series of dialogic understanding.” This hermeneutic would help faculty acknowledge and consider disciplinary biases within a framework of larger rhetorical concerns.

Abstract:

Kuriloff argues that instructors should teach discourse conventions of multiple academic disciplines and audience awareness to college students. He analyses sample academic sociology and literary essays written by a professor and a number of students to illustrate common discourse practices across disciplines. Citing H. Paul Grice’s Cooperative Principle, Kuriloff argues for a greater emphasis upon reader-writer interaction in composition pedagogy.

Abstract:

Straub challenges the dominant view that teacher commentary is directive or facilitative. Straub claims that these labels belie a simplistic dualism and eschew critique of actual teacher’s comments in favor of figurative description and a discussion of loosely defined attitudes. Straub evaluates the different comments on one student’s paper made by composition teachers Edward White, Jane Peterson, Peter Elbow and Ann Gere to better define a way to label and interpret comments and encourage all teachers to examine and improve their written comments on student essays.

Abstract:

Horner explains why and how insights of the basic writing movement got lost in composition discourse and the importance of recovering such history and insights from the movement. Horner argues that the terms of basic writing and its discourse (stemming from the 1970s public debate on open admissions at universities) represents a necessary response to institutional power that would marginalize students “deemed unprepared for college.”

Marback, Richard. “Corbett’s Hand: A Rhetorical Figure for Composition Studies.” CCC 47.2 (1996): 180-198.

Abstract:

Marback theorizes about open-hand and closed fist rhetorics. He analyzes events within the U.S. college composition community and in U.S. politics in1968 that inform Edward P.J Corbett’s 1969 CCC article “The Rhetoric of the Open Hand and the Rhetoric of the Closed Fist.” Marback claims that Corbett overestimates possibilities for ideal open communication. Open hand rhetorics can neutralize discourse by inscribing an exclusive liberal humanistic discourse that idealizes democratic free exchange and privileges reasoned written discourse over political material rhetorics. Marback further claims that this figurative discourse of open vs. closed hands impacts Donald Murray’s formative ideas of expressivism as evidenced by his 1969 article, “Finding Your Own Voice: Teaching Composition in an Age of Dissent.” Rhetorics of the open hand discipline the student to have to “hold the pen” and therefore precludes closed fist rhetorics. Closed fist rhetorics must be more vigorously interpreted, accurately defined and understood as a practice “mediated by the realities” of race, class and gender

Abstract:

Lunsford and Ede critique their published essay “Audience Addressed/Audience Invoked: The Role of Audience in Composition Theory and Pedagogy.” Their purpose is to resist “the lure of totalized oppositionalizing readings” through a critical inquiry that foregrounds the “rhetoricity ” of the article. By reflecting upon what it means to represent audience and by examining discourses that inform the article, the authors seek to raise questions about what makes for “‘successful’ discourse, disciplinary critique and progress.”
