Críticas

"Teachers have much to learn from this book about writing in other fields and what their first-year students can expect to be asked to do later in their education. Though facusing on writing programs and instruction. Local Knowledges, Local Practices offers a rare glimpse of a range of faculty reflecting on their practices as teachers (and learners)." - James Slevin, Georgetown University
