Responding to Student Writers

• Used Book in Good Condition

<DIV><P>Written from one teacher to another, Nancy Sommers’ <I>Responding to Student Writers</I> offers a model for thinking about response as a dialogue between students and teachers — and for thinking about the benefits of responding to <I>writers </I>as well as to their writing. Braddock Award–winning Nancy Sommers has taught composition and run composition programs for more than three decades; she currently teaches writing and mentors future teachers in Harvard’s Graduate School of Education. In this resource, which is based on her research and her travels to two- and four-year colleges and universities, she focuses on the roles that teacher feedback plays in writers’ development and offers strategies for moving away from responding as correcting. <B>This is a free resource for instructors.</B></DIV>
