Conversation with Larry Watson. [pp. 109-123]
Absract: Larry Watson is Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, where he teaches writing. He is also an award-winning creative writer.

- Whole-Class Workshops: The
Transformation of Students Into Writers.
Ian Barnard [pp. 124-143]
Abstract: Whole-class workshops are under-theorized and under-utilized in the composition classroom, despite the many benefits they offer over more commonly used small peer workshop groups as a method of providing students with feedback on drafts of their writing. Whole-class workshops translate into practice the repeated insistence of much composition theory that students need to imagine themselves writing to an audience other than their teacher; they also show students the difficulties and rewards of negotiating responses to and assessments of someone else’s writing, and ultimately develop in them the skills and self-confidence necessary to evaluate their own writing. If students are adequately prepared for whole-class workshops and facilitate the workshops themselves, these workshops dramatically impact student writing, students’ conceptions of themselves as writers, and instructors’ understanding of their identifications as teachers of writing.
- An Informal Survey of College Writing Instruction in The Philippines. James H. Wilson [pp. 144-164]
Abstract: Primarily because of American occupation of the Philippines in the early twentieth century and its abundance of languages and dialects, the Philippine population has generally become proficient in speaking and writing English, the common language used for business, government, and education in their society. This brief survey of six colleges and universities in Cebu City, first in 1998 and then in 2002, takes a look at their English programs and finds a system in change as it responds to a Memorandum from the Republic of the Philippines Commission on Higher Education. Their success in learning and using English suggests we could benefit from comparative studies investigating their methods of teaching English and how they relate to our own.
