reviewed The Writing Program Interrupted: Making Space for Critical Discourse on April 22, 2019 The Writing Program Interrupted: Making Space for Critical Discourse
This book attempts to do so much and ultimately does a lovely job of balancing it all. Lerner not only provides us with the fascinating and provocative history of lab learning in both writing and science, but also the theoretical justification for why such learning should continue to be practiced today. If there was a (small) weak link, I would have liked a bit more out of the final chapter. Perhaps one more extending what he discusses in a biology classroom to first-year writing in a different discipline?
