Old Voices/New Conversations: Sharing Drafts with Students.

Couch, Lezlie Laws

English Journal, v82 n8 p30-33 Dec 1993

Discusses the ways language shapes meaning and knowledge. Considers how writing instruction is vitally linked to the concepts of social constructionism. Outlines a class exercise in which the teacher shares an essay-in-progress with students and discusses the idea of writing and revision as "conversation." (HB)
