Overview

"Materiality and Writing Studies: Aligning Labor, Scholarship, and Teaching takes an expansive look at the discipline of writing studies, arguing for the centering of the field's research and service on first-year writing, particularly the ""new majority"" of college students (who are more diverse than ever before) and those who teach them. The book features the voices of first-year writing instructors at a two-year, open-access, multi-campus institution whose students are consistently underrepresented in discussions of the discipline. Drawing from a study of 78 two-year college student writers and an analysis of nearly two decades of issues of the major journals in the field of writing studies, Holly Hassel and Cassandra Phillips sketch out a reimagined vision for writing studies that roots the scholarship, research, and service in the discipline squarely within the changing material realities of contemporary college writing instruction."
