Series Foreword / Diane Belcher and Jun Liu Ch. 1. Understanding Critical Writing Ch. 2. An Overview of the Discipline Ch. 3. Issues of Form Ch. 4. Issues of Self Ch. 5. Issues of Content Ch. 6. Issues of Community Ch. 7. Teaching Multiliteracies
Summary: "In an era when English language teaching is increasingly perceived as fraught with "imperialistic implications," teachers of this global language have an obligation to revisit assumptions and reconsider the impact of their pedagogical actions. This volume facilitates such self-reflection and, at the same time, enables readers to better understand the motivations and pedagogical implications - especially for L2 writing - of a more openly ideological approach. Readers will discover what it means to commit to an academic pedagogy - in terms of form, self, content, and community - and what it can accomplish in the L2 writing classroom
