QQC 7/13/17

1. I don’t know about you, but I personally would love to have taken a class following any of these strands, although whether or not I would want to teach all of them is a different matter. Still, looking at them makes it difficult to choose. Would you choose one strand one semester and then try another the next one, use the same basic strand each semester, or combine elements?


2. In the Sommers piece, students preferred other terms than revision when it came to their personal process. To what extent should we encourage this in the classroom? Should we use a different word ourselves or does that run the risk of forcing a specific process on students? Should we encourage them to personalize their revision in the way these students did?

  2. I just realized my second question was similar to others' and feel the need to post another. This reading left me full of questions, anyway. Bishop offers what I understand to be a way for students to put revision in a new perspective through "radical revision" (184). How could we ensure students don't take this as more than another method?
