Thriving in Academe graphicWriting To Learn

In this issue’s Thriving in Academe, author Steve Bernhardt of the University of Delaware challenges long-held faculty assumptions about whose business the teaching of writing really is, dispels myths about how writing instruction works, and provides tips on taking the drudgery out of writing instruction and making it a tool to promote learning.

Negotiations are stalemated, and the faculty is angry. But they're not on strike—yet.
