But what does that mean? What makes writing meaningful for students? What, really, makes students want to write? The authors of this practical little book asked precisely that, and the answers they gathered from students across disciplines, majors, and institutions over several years inform their advice in \u003ci\u003eMaking Writing Meaningful: \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Guide for Higher Education\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The critical lessons that Michele Eodice, Anne Ellen Geller, and Neal Lerner took from their survey research, as well as from their own classrooms and workshops, are these: Students want their writing to be consequential, to build on connections with their lives, their world, and their futures, and to foster an inclusive learning experience. The authors delved further into these findings by asking what role identities—whether racial, ethnic, or cultural—played in students’ approach to writing and by exploring what students found meaningful in writing during experiences such as disruption, dislocation, and loss; personal, economic, and health challenges; and political, racial, and societal conflict. The resulting guide pairs a wealth of new data with pedagogical strategies and reflective exercises to help instructors of all kinds connect more effectively with their students—and to help students connect their lives and their writing in meaningful and productive ways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eMaking Writing Meaningful \u003c\/em\u003ewriting makes for a richer, more successful learning experience,  and this book invites students and teachers alike to take advantage of the guidance offered here to foster connections that will serve students—and the world—well beyond academia.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Oklahoma Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52551758938392,"sku":"9780806195339","price":58.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/making-writing-meaningful-volume-5-a-guide-for-higher-education-hardback-9780806195339","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
