Transitioning Writers across the Composition Threshold: What We Can Learn from Dual Enrollment Partnerships
Denecker, Christine
Composition Studies, v41 n1 p27-50 Spr 2013
Crossing the threshold from high school to college-level writing expectations constitutes a challenge for many students since secondary and post-secondary composition instructors often work under different constraints and are guided by different curricular philosophies. Dual enrollment classrooms provide a space where these differences can be delineated, discussed, respected, and perhaps even reconciled by instructors on both sides of the divide. (Contains 20 notes.)
