Book Synopsis Collaborative Writing by : Bruce W. Speck
Download or read book Collaborative Writing written by Bruce W. Speck and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1999-07-30 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaborative writing has attracted much attention in the last 25 years, though it eludes clear definition. In its simplest sense, it is writing done by more than one person. But in a broader sense, even a work by one author involves collaboration. The author typically builds on the work of others and revises the writing in response to feedback. This feedback can come from a student's peers or teacher in a classroom setting, it can come from experts and editors who assess a scholar's writing, or it can come from colleagues and clients in the world of business. This bibliography is a guide to research on collaborative writing published from the early 1970s to 1997. Included are nearly 1000 annotated entries for books, articles, reports, bibliographies, and other materials. These entries are clustered in two broad parts, each of which contains numerous topical sections. The first part of the book is devoted to collaborative writing in academic settings and covers such topics as classroom issues, peer review and tutoring, the role of computers and technology, particular types of classes, and ethical and gender concerns. The second looks at collaborative writing in nonacademic settings. Included are works on corporate acculturation, group dynamics, policies and procedures, industry-university collaboration, and technical reports. Entries are arranged alphabetically in each section, and detailed author and subject indexes provide easy access to the material.

Book Synopsis Working Collaboratively in Second/Foreign Language Learning by : María del Pilar García Mayo
Download or read book Working Collaboratively in Second/Foreign Language Learning written by María del Pilar García Mayo and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the introduction of communicative language teaching, collaborative learning has played an important role in the second language (L2) classroom. Drawing from sociocultural theory, which states that human cognitive development is a socially situated activity mediated by language, studies in L2 pedagogy advocate the use of tasks that require learners to work together. Collaborative dialogue encourages language learning, and research shows that the solutions reached by students in this process are more often correct with a lasting influence on their language comprehension. This volume includes ten chapters that illustrate the benefits of collaborative dialogue in second foreign language classrooms. The volume considers key issues dealing with collaborative tasks and implications for language teaching.
Book Synopsis Collaborative Writing Playbook by : Joe Moses
Download or read book Collaborative Writing Playbook written by Joe Moses and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-27 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joe Moses and Jason Tham Collaborative Writing Playbook: An Instructor's Guide to Designing Writing Projects for Student Teams supports writing across the curriculum by helping instructors overcome a key obstacle to assigning writing: the workload. The Playbook is for instructors who would assign more writing in their courses if they could create meaningful assignments that complement course goals. The Playbook is for instructors who would assign collaborative writing if they could account for individual contributions to collaboratively written content and use assessment criteria consistent with course learning objectives. Instructors can overcome the workload obstacles by identifying five learning objectives that writing and course content have in common: discipline-specific objectives for critical thinking, research, synthesis, genre/structure, and editing/peer review. By aligning writing objectives with course learning objectives, instructors can design writing projects, tasks, and peer review roles that support rather than distract from course content. Including collaborative writing throughout a course makes meaningful collaboration much easier to achieve than making collaboration a temporary activity, which can disrupt everyone's productivity. Joe Moses and Jason Tham present ideas for small and large activities that help instructors introduce collaboration at a pace that makes sense for them and sustains meaningful learning throughout a course. COLLABORATIVE WRITING PLAYBOOK has several unique features: Practical tools for planning and promoting productive teamwork. Roles for collaborative writing teammates that complement course-specific learning objectives. Structured activities designed specifically to support teammate interdependence and accountability. Templates for team charters, team planning, goal setting, and task coordination. A versatile, five-part structure-defined by instructors according to their preferences-for designing and evaluating team projects. What People Are Saying "Collaboration is a professional imperative. This Collaborative Writing Playbook provides an authentic, reliable roadmap for team writing built on design thinking. You'll be pleased to deploy it for team writing and all forms of collaboration." - Ann Hill Duin, University of Minnesota "Collaborative Writing Playbook revitalizes team-based writing instruction with a strong emphasis on modern career readiness. 'No team is automatically productive, ' write authors Joe Moses and Jason Tham, who roll up their sleeves to rally instructors navigating the difficult world of designing collaborative assignments with a bold but agile five-part structure. The book deftly serves as both a complete model and one that is easily customizable to a range of classroom scenarios. Highly practical and resourceful, Playbook specifies a set of adaptable templates for activities, checklists and guides to prompt instructors. Playbook is a must-have!" - Isabel Pedersen, Ontario Tech University "Collaborative Writing Playbook is a substantial, thoughtful, and insightful contribution to the discourse on collaborative writing. It is simultaneously a playbook, an instructor's guide, a textbook, a work of theory, even a guide for lesson planning and project design." - Jacob Richter, Clemson University Joe Moses teaches collaborative writing, research, and project design in the Department of Writing Studies at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. Jason Tham (PhD, University of Minnesota) is Assistant Professor of Technical Communication and Rhetoric at Texas Tech University.
Book Synopsis Singular Texts/plural Authors by : Lisa S. Ede
Download or read book Singular Texts/plural Authors written by Lisa S. Ede and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why write together?" the authors ask. They answer that question here, in the first book to combine theoretical and historical explorations with actual research on collaborative and group writing. Lisa Ede and Andrea Lunsford challenge the assumption that writing is a solitary act. That challenge is grounded in their own personal experience as long-term collaborators and in their extensive research, including a three-stage study of collaborative writing supported by the Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education. The authors urge a fundamental change in our institutions to accommodate collaboration by radically resituating power in the classroom and by instituting rewards for collaborative work that equal rewards for single-authored work. They conclude with the injunction: "Today and in the twenty-first century, our data suggest, writers must be able to work together. They must, in short, be able to collaborate."
Book Synopsis Collaborative Spirit-Writing and Performance in Everyday Black Lives by : Bryant Keith Alexander
Download or read book Collaborative Spirit-Writing and Performance in Everyday Black Lives written by Bryant Keith Alexander and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-11 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaborative Spirit-Writing and Performance in Everyday Black Lives is about the interconnectedness between collaboration, spirit, and writing. It is also about a dialogic engagement that draws upon shared lived experiences, hopes, and fears of two Black persons: male/female, straight/gay. This book is structured around a series of textual performances, poems, plays, dialogues, calls and responses, and mediations that serve as claim, ground, warrant, qualifier, rebuttal, and backing in an argument about collaborative spirit-writing for social justice. Each entry provides evidence of encounters of possibility, collated between the authors, for ourselves, for readers, and society from a standpoint of individual and collective struggle. The entries in this Black performance diary are at times independent and interdependent, interspliced and interrogative, interanimating and interstitial. They build arguments about collaboration but always emanate from a place of discontent in a caste system, designed through slavery and maintained until today, that positions Black people in relation to white superiority, terror, and perpetual struggle. With particular emphasis on the confluence of Race, Racism, Antiracism, Black Lives Matter, the Trump administration, and the Coronavirus pandemic, this book will appeal to students and scholars in Race studies, performance studies, and those who practice qualitative methods as a new way of seeking Black social justice.

Book Synopsis Computer Supported Collaborative Writing by : Mike Sharples
Download or read book Computer Supported Collaborative Writing written by Mike Sharples and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: M. Sharples 1. 1 The Collaborative Tradition Collaborative writing is nothing new. The description below is from the introduction to a book published in 1911: Every page, however, has been debated and passed by the three of us. Our usual method has been, first to pick up a subject that interested us, perhaps a subject we had been talking about for a long while, then to discuss it and argue over it, ashore and afloat, in company and by ourselves, till we came to our joint conclusion. Then on a rough day, in a set-to discussion, I would take down notes, which frequently amounted in length to more than half the finished article. From the notes I would make a rough draft, which, after more discussion, would be re written, and again, after revision, typewritten. We would go through the printer's proofs together and finally, after reading the matter in print, we have once more revised it for book publication. Collaboration could not be more thorough. (Reynolds, et al. 1911, p. x) The book, Seems So! A Working-class View of Politics, was written by an aca demic working closely with two fishermen.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a passionate engagement with Gilles Deleuze and collaborative writing, in which four writers explore together the insights that Deleuze has contributed to the topic. This powerful and complex text, which will appeal to scholars within qualitative inquiry, investigates the question of how we might begin to write, together, on what Deleuze would call an immanent plane of composition. On such a Deleuzian plane, or plateau, the writers seek to bond with Deleuze, to open up with him a new stream of thought and of being.
Book Synopsis Beyond Conversation by : William Duffy
Download or read book Beyond Conversation written by William Duffy and published by Utah State University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-04 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collaboration was an important area of study in writing for many years, but interest faded as scholars began to assume that those working within writing studies already “got it.” In Beyond Conversation, William Duffy revives the topic and connects it to the growing interest in collaboration within digital and materialist rhetoric to demonstrate that not only do the theory, pedagogy, and practice of collaboration need more study but there is also much to be learned from the doing of collaboration. While interrogating the institutional politics that circulate around debates about collaboration, this book offers a concise history of collaborative writing theory while proposing a new set of commonplaces for understanding the labor of coauthorship. Specifically, Beyond Conversation outlines an interactionist theory that explains collaboration as the rhetorical capacity that manifests in the discursive engagements coauthors enter into with the objects of their writing. Drawing on new materialist philosophies, post-qualitative inquiry, and interactionist rhetorical theory, Beyond Conversation challenges writing and literacy educators to recognize the pedagogical benefits of collaborative writing in the work they do both as writers and as teachers of writing. The book will reinvigorate how teachers, scholars, and administrators advocate for the importance of collaborative writing in their work.

But when a tsunami floods their city, killing Lucy’s parents and endangering Ben’s people, their beliefs must change. The tsunami has awakened powers, ancient and deadly. The old gods have risen. Long have they watched people’s abuse of each other and the natural world; at last the gods have had enough. They will protect the world... by destroying all humankind.

And to deliver those artifacts to the gods themselves: offerings that might — just might — appease the powers of destruction. Pursued by human traffickers who have kidnapped Lucy’s sister, hunted by the gods’ warrior spirits and supernatural assassins, Ben and Lucy must forget all they know, and sacrifice everything they love to protect their country from the greatest threat ever known: the wrath of the Risen Gods.
