Writing about Writing 2nd Edition by Elizabeth Wardle – ISBN: 9781457636943 – Features of Writing about Writing, Second Edition – Topics That Matter to Writers – Writing about Writing is organized around concepts and principles from Writing Studies – with which we think students should become familiar: how texts in general?and ideas – about writing in particular?are constructed; what writing processes are and how they – work; what ?literacy? means and how people become literate (or multiliterate); how – communities use and are shaped by discourse; and how writers can gain authority when – writing in college. These issues are framed in the text as questions, each of which forms – the basis of one chapter. Many of these are issues that were covered in the fi rst edition, – but some are new. All have been re-ordered to create a carefully sequenced and scaffolded – learning experience for students: – ? Chapter 1: Literacies: Where Do Your Ideas About Reading and Writing Come From? – ? Chapter 2: Individual in Community: How Do Texts Mediate Activities? – ? Chapter 3: Rhetoric: How Is Meaning Constructed in Context? – ? Chapter 4: Processes: How Are Texts Composed? – ? Chapter 5: Multi-Modal Composition: What Counts as Writing? – By asking students to fi nd their own answers to these questions, we encourage them – to refl ect on past literacy experiences and to be mindful of present ones, making them – directly responsible, in the end, for their own learning.
