What is Electronic Writing Centers: Computing in the Field of Composition (New Directions in Computers & Composition Studies) about?

Against The Idea Of The Writing Center As A Fix-it Shop And The Computer As A Teaching Machine, Coogan Theorizes The Electronic Writing Center As A Dialogic Space Where Students And Tutors Learn To Value Those Off-stage Voices And Contradictory Impulses That Inform Their Writing. By Connecting E-mail Tutoring With Similar Practices In The Classroom, Coogan Challenges Us Not Only To Imagine New Roles For Computers In The Writing Center But To Implement A New Practice Of Dialogic Literacy In The Discipline Of Composition.--jacket. 1. Tutors And Computers In Composition Studies -- 2. Email Tutoring And Dialogic Literacy -- 3. The Medium Is Not The Message -- 4. The Idea Of An Electronic Writing Center -- 5. Computing The Field Of Composition. By David Coogan. Includes Bibliographical References (p. 133-140) And Indexes.
