Tremmel, Michelle – 2002
Mikhail Bakhtin's theories of language and literature can illuminate the workings of multigenre compositions. Bakhtin's theories of heteroglossia and novelization are applicable because they are not genre dependent. As he says, they reach "beyond the bounds of the novel as genre" to reflect the ways all kinds of written language may…

Carroll, Joyce Armstrong – 1980
The change of emphasis from the written product to writing as a process manifests another important change--one from logical to phenomenological consciousness.

The model views discourse production as a series of three interactive decision levels in which (1)…

Zolliker, Susan – 1991
Exploring the use of the prefix "meta" and the use of "meta" terms in the context of Lev S. Vygotsky's theories demonstrates that students need to use language to learn about language. "Writing about writing" is already part of many classrooms, but by establishing a connection between metadiscourse written informally…

Duffey, Joseph – 1979
The task of providing the tools of basic literacy for all citizens is still unfinished in the United States, as well as on an international scale.

The paper begins by noting the confusion in terminology that exists in the world of composition pedagogy and theory; pointing to the need for a framework for testing,…

Daniell, Beth – 1987
During the late 1970s, English studies journals began to include various versions of, and proposals built upon, the Great Leap theory of literacy.

Maynor, Natalie – 1982
One way to alleviate the hostile feelings of students whose dialects or idiolects interfere with their writing of Edited American English is to spend class time studying the differences between written and spoken English and examining the reasons such differences exist.

Lloyd-Jones, Richard – 1979
There are two modes for testing writing: atomistic and holistic. Atomistic tests depend on isolating a form, emphasizing the recognition of the form rather than the creation of it.
