Congratulations to PhD Student William Bowden, whose article “Process and Post-Process Writing in the Composition Classroom” has been posted to the website During Office Hours, an open access source for higher education teaching resources.
He writes, “[w]hen I took similar classes as an undergraduate (even as an English Major) I felt distant from the content being taught. Perusing the textbook and moving through the motions, I often wondered about the value of what we were learning.” The essay then discusses how he explored – and we might as well – solutions to this issue in his composition classroom: “[t]eachers should not avoid teaching the process model of writing. I encourage others to think about creating their own dialectic models with their students.”
