Carillo Ellen C. Carillo (EDT) Reading and Writing Instruction in the Twenty-First Century

Annotation

Robert Scholes passed away on December 9, 2016, leaving behind an intellectual legacy focused broadly on textuality. Scholes's work had a significant impact on a range of fields, including literary studies, composition and rhetoric, education, media studies, and the digital humanities, among others. In Reading and Writing Instruction in the Twenty-First Century contemporary scholars explore and extend the continued relevance of Scholes's work for those in English and writing studies. In this volume, Scholes's scholarship is included alongside original essays, providing a resource for those considering everything from the place of the English major in the twenty-first century to best practices for helping students navigate misinformation and disinformation. Reading and Writing Instruction in the Twenty-First Century not only keeps Scholes's legacy alive but carries it on through a commitment, in Scholes's (1998) own words, to "offer our students . . . the cultural equipment they are going to need when they leave us." Contributors:Angela Christie, Paul T.
