Community Writing: Researching Social Issues Through Composition by Paul Collins
Requirements: PDF Readers, 1MB
Overview: This is a primary text for first-year composition courses, covering the basics of the writing process. The assignments are recursive. Short writing assignments in each chapter build up to longer papers. Each of the assignment questions is accompanied by a guide to thinking about and writing the assigned paper, followed by a short Focus On reading that provides a brief account of community activism, a media case study, or a notable success story. The longer papers are accompanied by in-class peer reading groups. Each successive peer reading attempts a higher level of conceptual critique. By working together throughout the semester, students create increasingly adept peer groups familiar with all stages of each other’s research. The book is carefully structured, but there is plenty of “give” in it, allowing instructors to be flexible in adapting it to the needs of their students and courses.
