"In this book journals are seen in every situation and from every angle, as if mounted on a slow turntable under a spotlight. The conclusion of most of the teachers and students using them is that they get people thinking, they help them test their own experience against the ideas of many others-- the authorities they're studying, their teachers, their fellow students ... The payoffs from using journals in classrooms are here shown to be astounding. Students learn from making mistakes and half-forming ideas. They learn to think, not by doing exercises in a faddish "critical thinking" textbook, but by working their way through real questions, with real interest and real intent"--Back cover.

To clarify how writing across the curriculum improves learning across the curriculum, this book provides an overview of the current state of writing instruction at the secondary and college levels as it applies to teaching in the content areas. Each chapter contains practical ideas for using writing in the classroom, along with a discussion of the theories on which these ideas are based. In keeping with the hands-on nature of the book, workshop materials are provided at the end of every chapter, including invitations to write journals, workshop exercises, handouts and worksheets, and teacher and student responses to workshop experiences. Chapter topics are arranged in the same order as they might be discussed at an interdisciplinary writing workshop, though each stands as a relatively independent essay.
