For English instructors at every level, the task of producing a
worthwhile, workable plan for each class period can prove a
perennially nerve-wracking experience. To ease this challenge, this
invaluable work offers a vast compilation of writing exercises and
in-class activities collected from professors, graduate students
and lecturers from colleges and universities across the U.S.
Step-by-step instructions guide teachers through class discussions
and exercises on topics ranging from invention, argumentation,
formatting, thesis development and organization to rhetorical
situation, visual rhetoric, peer review and revision. Most entries
are designed as stand-alone exercises to fill a standard fifty
minute class, but some are expandable to cover multiple class
periods and even provide homework assignments. From high school
teachers and first-time teaching assistants to experienced writing
professors looking to enhance their courses, anyone who teaches
English will appreciate the fresh ideas found in this indispensable
volume.
