Product Description
In "Colors of a Different Horse", creative writers who are teachers consider the political, historical, theoretical, and pedagogical states of their art by responding to Bishop and Ostrom's defining questions about their field: What takes place in creative writing classrooms? Why do certain practices and contexts prevail? Most important, what steps might teachers take to reexamine their profession? In a foreword, afterword, and twenty-two essays, thirty contributors reconsider the workshop; address the theoretical and technological contexts of creative writing and pedagogy; and re-envision evaluation, collaboration, and connections between types of writing instruction. In doing so, these writers envision creative writing theory and pedagogy in the 21st century.
