10-second review: Teachers should describe the students’ writing and analyze, not judge.
Title: “The Language of Rhetoric.” LT Whipp. College Composition and Communication (February 1968), 15 – 21. A publication of the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE).
Comment: Writing teachers must play many different roles in responding to their students’ writing. At some point, they have to judge, but the criteria must be clear. Describing and analyzing will be time consuming. Will it be helpful to the students? RayS.
