Literary Nonfiction. Education. ESL. Language Arts &
Disciplines. Edited by Paul Kei Matsuda, Christina Ortmeier-Hooper,
and Xiaoye You. THE POLITICS OF SECOND LANGUAGE WRITING: IN SEARCH
OF THE PROMISED LAND is the first edited collection to present a
sustained discussion of classroom practices in larger contexts of
institutional politics and policies. Contributors focus on the
policies on assessment, placement, credit, class size, course
content, instructional practices, teacher preparation, and teacher
support. They examine politics in terms of the relationships and
interaction between second language writing professionals and
colleagues at the program, department, school, college, and
university levels and beyond. Contributors also explore--through
critical reflections and situated descriptions of their teaching
practices in larger institutional contexts--how these policies and
politics affect pedagogical practices. Readers will learn why
classroom practices are not neutral, pragmatic space but
ideologically saturated sites of negotiation. Contributors are
anling Fu, Marylou Matoush, Kerry Enright Villalva, Ilona Leki,
Ryuko Kubota, Kimberly Abels, Angela M. Dadak, Jessica Williams,
Wei Zhu, Guillaume Gentil, Kevin Eric DePew, Xiaoye You, Deborah
Crusan, Sara Cushing Weigle, Jessie Moore Kapper, Christine Norris,
Christine Tardy, Stephanie Vandrick, and Barbara Kroll.
