This book won the 2014 CCCC (Conference on College Composition and
Communication) Outstanding Book Award - Edited Collection Race and
Writing Assessment brings together established and up-and-coming
scholars in composition studies to explore how writing assessments
needs to change in order to account for the increasing diversity of
students in college classrooms today. Contributors identify where
we have ignored race in our writing assessment approaches and
explore issues related to assessment technologies, faculty and
student responses to assessment, institutional responses to writing
assessment, and context for assessing writing beyond composition
programs. Balancing practical advice and theoretical discussions,
Race and Writing Assessment provides a variety of models,
frameworks, and research methods to consider writing assessment
approaches that are sensitive to the linguistic and cultural
identities that diverse students bring to writing classrooms. This
book illustrates that this is no one-size-fits-all model for
addressing diversity in assessment practice but that assessment
practices attuned to racial diversity must be rooted in the
contexts in which they are found. In doing so, Race and Writing
Assessment enriches contemporary research on contextualized
approaches to writing assessment.
