<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Reviews the history of writing, moves to highlight the "process approach" movement and how the movement changed how educators viewed and, thereby taught, writing. Chapters present a different genre of writing and include prompts and examples to help educators return to authentic writing, where the voice of the students take center stage.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Our wildly diverse country contains multitudes-wanderers and drifters, exiles and refugees, boundary defenders and border-crossers, nomads and immigrants, Underground Railroaders and long-haul riders, free-thinkers and rule-followers. No single story can say it all, for we are people who speak with many tongues, and who refuse to stand still-we're on the move, on the run, and in the mix, our collective experiences united<em> in motion</em>. <strong><em>Critical Process Writing</em></strong> begins here, for Brett Blake understands that no one is literally "voiceless," although too many (massively and tragically in American schools) are savagely silenced or heartlessly unheard. Dr. Blake illuminates a sturdy antidote-literacy practices that are collaborative, social, and critical, geared toward co-creating (teacher and student together) a relationship that reveals a wide universe of meaning-making. The result: the poetry of the everyday, the literature of the street, and an authentic encounter in which a teacher, listening with empathy and identification, and a student, seizing an occasion to perform an account of events and experiences, become both more literate and more powerful and intentional in their projects and their pursuits. <strong><em>Critical Process Writing</em></strong> is an indispensable book. </p><p> Bill Ayers, University of Illinois at Chicago</p>
