The Writing Workshop by Alan Ziegler
Have you ever wondered where your teachers or classmates came to learn such notions as form and content or the writing process? Zeigler demystifies writing pedagogy with this clear account of his teaching experiences. He shares the exercises he has used in the classroom (at times, as step-by step lesson plans), the affects they had on his students, and samples of his students' poetry. His last chapter, Workshop Projects focuses on ideas for classroom projects, which culminate in performances or the publishing of student work. At the end is an appendix with advice on how to engage eager and troubled students, alike, and how to prepare them when a visiting writer is part of the weekly curriculum.
Alan Ziegler is professor of writing and director of pedagogy at Columbia University's School of the Arts, where he was chair of the Writing Program from 2001 to 2006 and won the Presidential Award for Outstanding Teaching. His books include The Swan Song of Vaudeville, The Green Grass of Flatbush, So Much to Do, The Writing Workshop, volumes 1 and 2, and The Writing Workshop Note Book. Ziegler lives in New York City with his wife, Erin Langston.
