Phelps, Stephen; Weaver, Dera
Journal of Literacy Research, v31 n3 p321-54 Sep 1999
Examines factors influencing students' personal voices becoming part of the public talk of an 11th-grade U.S. history class and an 8th-grade language arts class. Finds student participation in discussion is influenced by peer and gender relations and differing conceptions of teaching and knowledge. Notes encouraging students to exercise their personal voices in the classroom entails risks for teachers and students. (RS)
