Senger, Heinz; Archer, B. M. Lynn – English Journal, 1989
Describes a unit involving the novel, screenplay, and film of "Sounder" in which students experienced literature as something to be lived through rather than directed by the teachers. Notes that teachers and students abandoned their typical classroom roles in favor of becoming co-explorers and co-creators of texts. (RS)
