O'Brien, Kathy Mosdal; Denny, Chuck
Teaching English in the Two-Year College, v25 n2 p107-14 May 1998
Describes how instructors at two different colleges in Montana (a tribal college and a distant community college) collaboratively teach composition courses (using the same reading and assignments, and doing peer revision for each other). Describes how this approach breaks through cultural, ideological, intellectual "containments;" engages in academic discourse; and enters into new discourse communities. (SR)
