Summary:The Idea of a Writing Laboratory is a book about possibilities, about teaching and learning to write in ways that can transform both teachers and students. Author Neal Lerner explores higher education's rich history of writing instruction in classrooms, writing centers and science laboratories. By tracing the roots of writing and science educators' recognition that the method of the lab--hands-on student activity-is essential to learning, Lerner offers the hope that the idea of a writing laboratory will be fully realized more than a century after bot.
