Summary: | Offering theoretical and practical criticism of the conventions of first-year university writing instruction in the United States, Bianco suggests that writing pedagogy incorporate various digital and new media modes of writing into the teaching of composition. The essay asserts that compositional digital platforms are already used prolifically and socially by young writers and that the affective charge of integrated digital writing, or multi-and hyper-media compositing, might be productively crossed with academic knowledge production. Illustrations of three classroom examples draw out the critique and proposed digital revision of university writing pedagogies. |
