Abstract:
Explores the effectiveness of the workshop in the creative writing classroom, and looks beyond the question of whether or not the workshop works to address the issue of what an altered pedagogical model might look like. This title covers various theoretical and pedagogical topics and explores the inner workings and conflicts of the workshop model.
