The Literature Workshop by Sheridan Blau
In this groundbreaking book, Sheridan Blau introduces the literature workshop as the most effective approach to solving many of the classic instructional problems that perplex beginning and veteran teachers of literature. Through lively re-creations of actual workshops that he regularly conducts for students and teachers, Blau invites his readers to become active participants in workshops on such topics as:
- helping students read more difficult texts than they think they can read
- where interpretations come from
- the problem of background knowledge in teaching classic texts
- how to deal with competing and contradictory interpretations
- what's worth saying about a literary text
- balancing respect for readers with respect for texts and intellectual authority
- ensuring that literary discussions are lively and productive
- how to develop valuable and engaging writing assignments.
Blau, Sheridan: - A past president of NCTE, a member of the National Writing Project Task Force, and teacher of literature for two generations of students, Sheridan Blau directs the South Coast Writing Project and the Literature Institute for Teachers at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where he is a senior faculty member in the departments of English and Education.
