Fusing Social Justice with Multigenre Writing.
Slack, Delane Bender
English Journal, v90 n6 p62-66 Jul 2001
Describes a multigenre research paper assignment noting how the teacher guided the students with ideas and encouragement. Presents individual students' experiences with the multigenre projects. Discusses the instructor's political agenda, which was based on equality, empathy, and optimism. Concludes that a multigenre research paper takes more time and energy, it is more personal, and it makes students think harder. (SG)
