Back to School with Occasional Papers: Teaching Writing in a Way That Students Embrace Enthusiastically
There used to be a nostalgia for back to school, with fall leaves drifting down and shiny apples on teachers desks as images stamped into our memories of decades past. Now, with computers the size of index cards and artificial systems culling millions of purloined books and papers, educators have more to contend with than they ever thought possible when they were students themselves.
Teachers teach because they see the need to help share knowledge or because they feel the drive to help shape a better, more educated, future for new generations. But how does a teacher know their students are engaged in this learning, and how do they know the students are understanding any of the discussion?
Occasional Papers: Teaching Writing in a Way That Students Embrace Enthusiastically offers an excellent approach to this quandary.
Written by teachers, for teachers
Bill Martin and Christine Gorychka bring their years of classroom experience teaching English and writing to high school and college age students to this book. Every teacher knows that engagement is more than just repeating facts, it’s about understanding and application.
This comprehensive workbook provides reflective questions, different ways to use Occasional Papers, samples and examples, and guides for classroom application.
