Writing Centers and Learning Commons: Staying Centered While Sharing Common Ground
Editat de Steven J. Corbett, Teagan E. Decker, Maria L. Soriano Youngen Limba Engleză Paperback – apr 2023 – vârsta ani
The chapters comprehensively examine the ways writing centers make the most of sharing common ground. Directors, coordinators, administrators, and stakeholders draw on past and present attention to writing center studies to help shape the future of the learning commons and narrate their substantial collective experience with collaborative efforts to stay centered while empowering colleagues and student writers at their institutions. The contributors explore what is gained and lost by affiliating writing centers with learning commons, how to create sound pedagogical foundations that include writing center philosophies, how writing center practices evolved or have been altered by learning center affiliations, and more.
Writing Centers and Learning Commons is for all stakeholders of writing in and across campuses collaborating on (by choice or edict), or wishing to explore the possibilities of, a learning commons enterprise.

Recenzii
“A valuable and timely contribution to the field. This is important, even if risky, work. Clearly, it is time for this book—one that recognizes the benefits and drawbacks of a wide range of locations but ultimately argues that the assumption that writing centers belong in English departments is not only outdated but also, often, limiting.”
