- Book Synopsis
- Writing Changes moves beyond restrictive thinking about composition to examine writing as a material and social practice rich with contradictions. It analyzes the assumed dichotomy between writing and multimodal composition (which incorporates sounds, images, and gestures) as well as the truism that all texts are multimodal. Organized in four sections, the essays explore:alphabetic text and multimodal composition in writing studiesspecific pedagogies that place writing in productive conversation with multimodal formscurrent representations of writing and multimodality in textbooks, on instructors' attitudes toward social media, and on writing programsideas about writing studies as a discipline in the light of new communication practicesBookending the essays are an introduction that frames the collection and establishes key terms and concepts and an epilogue that both sums up and complicates the ideas in the essays.
