Spycher, Pamela – WestEd, 2021
Reading critically involves examining the language choices authors make to "get the job done" -- in other words, to communicate effectively in specific ways with particular audiences.

Simmonds, Claire – Teaching History, 2016
Disappointed that the use of the "PEEL" writing scaffold had led her Year 11 students to write some rather dreary essays, Claire Simmonds reflected that a lack of specific training on historical writing might be to blame. Drawing on genre theory and the work of the history teaching community, Simmonds attempted to theorise the…

Schieber, Danica L. – Business and Professional Communication Quarterly, 2016
Much research shows that students do not transfer learning well from one class to the next.

The findings suggest that business majors not only transferred rhetorical knowledge from their other…
