Reviews

This invaluable resource contributes careful scholarship to an urgent conversation in the field of writing studies: How to position the first-year composition class as antidote to the misinformation and disinformation against which we all struggle. Working with cornerstone documents and policies in the field, this volume brings librarians and rhetoricians together to describe fresh critiques of and improvements on teaching college writing, research, and information literacy. I particularly commend the editor and contributors for their attention to multiple classroom populations, languages, and literacies. These chapters are not offered as universal boilerplates, but as models of and reflections on pedagogies that recognize and appreciate difference in the classroom. -- (08/15/2018)
