Synopses & ReviewsPlease note that used books may not include additional media (study guides, CDs, DVDs, solutions manuals, etc.) as described in the publisher comments.
Publisher Comments:Many current books by and for people in our business encourage the use of peer response groups as a means of enhancing learning. Almost none, however, translates this potentially powerful idea into workable strategies and techniques. Few comment usefully on the difficulties involved in the response group process, or on reasonable goals and outcomes, or even on the activity's deeper intellectual and behavioral implications. Sharing Writing is for teachers who are serious about helping students learn to work in response groups. In addressing both theoretical and practical concerns, Spear provides answers to two essential questions: What can writing teachers do to help students become good peer readers? How do peer response groups contribute to student growth as writers? Synopsis:Sharing Writing is for teachers who are serious about helping students learn to work in response groups. About the AuthorKaren Spear is Professor of English and Dean of Arts and Sciences at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado, where she regularly teaches writing seminars and conducts cross-disciplinary faculty workshops on teaching writing. She has published numerous essays and book reviews in academic journals, and she consults with public schools, colleges, and universities around the country on liberal education program development, teaching improvement, and writing-across-the-curriculum.
