This is an advanced writing course designed primarily for English Education majors as they begin to switch their focus from self-as-student to self-as-teacher. Along with identifying theory and best practice, we will explore the idea that to learn to teach writing, we must write. We will do this through • exploring key constructs of an instructional approach to the teaching of writing in the English classroom • creating a community of writers where we write and respond to each other’s writing to learn to be better teachers of writing • actively engaging in various genres of writing with the knowledge that to teach writing we must be active writers • reading and discussing accounts by professional writers, student writers, teachers of writing and writing researchers • experiencing an environment created around the social construction of knowledge.
