Teacher Dominance in the Writing Conference.

Walker, Carolyn

Journal of Teaching Writing, v11 n1 p65-87 Spr-Sum 1992

Finds that the amount of teacher talk in individual writing conferences becomes a problem only when the student is not allowed to be in control (in terms of ownership of the agenda). Suggests that teachers use their expertise and what students have to say to create appropriate pedagogies. (RS)
