Powerful Writing, Responsible Teaching


Book Description
This work examines the problems and promise of progressive literary education. The author develops a series of striking metaphors - the writing workshop as carnival and the teacher as novelist - and makes use of Bakhtin's theories of language and Dewey's vision of schooling.
