Teaching with Hacker Handbooks, a collection of resources to accompany all Hacker handbooks, helps you answer the question How can I integrate a handbook into my course? Both novice and seasoned teachers who assign writing will benefit from the practical strategies and materials developed by master teachers and others in the field. And if you supervise or train new teachers, you’ll find the collection helps you provide a mentoring experience.
Part I addresses larger teaching concerns in chapters such as "Designing Effective Assignments" and "Responding to Student Writing."
Part II offers ten ready-to-use modules, such as "Teaching Students to Integrate Sources" and "Teaching Paragraphs," each including a discussion of common writing challenges, a single assignment or class activity, and a directory to additional resources.
Part III includes handouts, assignments, and sample syllabi drawn from the composition community.
