| Description: |
A history of the writing-across-the-curriculum movement. This second edition provides a comprehensive history of writing instruction outside general composition courses in American secondary and higher education from the 1870s through to the 1980s. |
| Synopsis: |
To understand the ways students learn to write, we must go beyond the small and all too often marginalized component of the curriculum that treats writing explicitly and look at the broader, though largely tacit traditions students encounter in the whole curriculum, explains David R. Russell, in the introduction to this singular study. The updated edition provides a comprehensive history of writing instruction outside general composition courses in American secondary and higher education, from the founding of public secondary schools and research universities in the 1870s, through the spread of the writing-across-the-curriculum movement in the 1980s, through the WAC efforts in contemporary curriculums. |
