Postmodern Cultural Studies and the Politics of Writing Instruction.
McComiskey, Bruce
Teaching English in the Two-Year College, v26 n2 p144-53 Dec 1998
Presents brief guidelines for developing writing assignments based on the author's description (a politicized representation) of postmodern cultural studies. Discusses a composition assignment in which students critique the formal and the hidden curriculum of a class they have taken in the recent past, and in which they also become writing members of the institutions and communities they critique.
