Synopsis
Writing should be for an audience other than a teacher, and for a purpose beyond getting a grade.
Connecting their classroom experience to research about writing, as well as to framing documents in the field, two seasoned writing teachers distill the lessons they’ve learned about creating confident adolescent and young adult writers. Troy Hicks and Andy Schoenborn outline a fundamental stance to their approach―to invite, encourage, and celebrate students’ writing―that is then echoed in the book’s three-part structure. There are numerous classroom activities and assignments on topics from creating writing goals to supporting revision, examples of student work, and questions to guide teachers’ reflections.
In this book for any teacher of writing, from middle school through college, readers are invited to try strategies and allow students’ voices to emerge, while discussing with colleagues how these approaches might work for them, too.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. We need to help students see that writing can be for an audience other than a teacher, and for a purpose beyond getting a grade. Addressing their colleagues in secondary and college writing instruction, Troy Hicks and Andy Schoenborn initiate a collaborative conversation about instructional decision- making that works to encourage the growth of students as confident writers. Chapters seek common ground on such topics as fostering student agency and goal- setting, optimizing the use of class time and technology, and using formative and summative assessments. Examples of assignments, student work, assessment tasks, and teacher reflections are included throughout. The books approach builds on significant framing documents from NCTE, NWP, the Council of Writing Program Administrators, ISTE, and the CCSS. We need to help students see that writing can be for an audience other than a teacher, and for a purpose beyond getting a grade".
