This pedagogy, they argue, addresses writing as a situated, social act and \"points us toward a curriculum of textual studies based on [rhetorical] inquiry into variation in discourse\" (Bacon 53).

A literature review of LD in composition shows how this invisibility has manifested itself in our field through limited professional discussion of LD. In response, we propose not a level playing field but a new playing field altogether, a visible one that actively promotes alternative assistance for student writers with LD in first-year composition programs. We seek to show how the LD and composition fields could create a powerful partnership by serving students with LD through the principle of the liberal theory of distributive justice.","PeriodicalId":47107,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE COMPOSITION AND COMMUNICATION","volume":"55 1","pages":"504-535"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/4140697","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69322751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building from the rhetorical construct of dialogism, this inquiry explores how the early ethical thought of Mikhail Bakhtin can contribute an “ethics of answerability” to sociocultural literacy studies. Explicating and extending a more established perspective in classroom literacy study—what I call an “ethics of difference”—my reading of Bakhtin’s early work offers a shift in focus from linguistic difference to the self who responds, or answers, to difference. An ethics of answerability highlights the unique and heavy responsibilities that individuals face as they respond to others in everyday interaction and in textual production. Proposed in light of this theoretical orientation are questions to guide inquiry in classroom-based sociocultural literacy research.","PeriodicalId":47107,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE COMPOSITION AND COMMUNICATION","volume":"14 1","pages":"536-567"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/4140698","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69322755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Review of successive editions of the program's Student Guide to Writing at UCI reveals a progressive retreat from the program's pedagogical commitments and the reappearance of product-oriented instruction. here is increasing evidence that the failure of education reform is located in the educative act itself. James Milroy and Lesley Milroy observe that teach- ers' \"rational conviction\" about the intellectual bankruptcy of traditional no- tions of correctness in language use did not necessarily alter teachers' classroom practices, even though teachers appeared to believe they had done so (104). In a 1995 review of the assessment-driven reform movement across the United States, Larry Cuban reports a similar phenomenon. Teachers who actively embraced in-service training required to teach to the new assessments did not change their instructional practice to any significant degree, although teachers appeared to believe they had made the changes they had been taught","PeriodicalId":47107,"journal":{"name":"COLLEGE COMPOSITION AND COMMUNICATION","volume":"55 1","pages":"302-329"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/3594219","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69175919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
