Teaching Writing in the Twenty-First Century is a comprehensive
introduction to writing instruction in an increasingly digital world. It
provides both a theoretical background and detailed practical guidance
to writing instructors faced with novel and ever-changing digital
learning technologies, new approaches to access needs and usability
design, increasing student diversity, and the multiliteracies of
reading, alphabetic writing, and multimodal composition. A companion
volume, Administering Writing Programs in the Twenty-First Century,
considers the role of administrators in addressing these issues.Covering
all aspects of teaching online, various composition genres, and the
technologies available to teachers, Teaching Writing in the Twenty-First
Century addresses composing processes and approaches; designing and
scaffolding assignments; providing response, feedback, and evaluation;
communicating effectively; and supporting students. These strategic and
practical ideas are prefaced by a history of the relation between
composition and rhetoric and a guide to diversity, inclusion, and
access. The volume ends with a chapter on envisioning the future of
composition.
