Everyday Editing: Inviting Students to Develop Skill and Craft in Writer's Workshop

Autor Jeff Anderson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 oct 2007

În volumul Everyday Editing, Jeff Anderson provoacă paradigma tradițională care plasează editarea la finalul procesului de scriere, adesea izolată de contextul creativ al elevului. Considerăm că valoarea centrală a acestei lucrări rezidă în transformarea corectării dintr-o simplă vânătoare de erori într-o explorare conștientă a stilului și a sensului. Ediția de față propune o alternativă viabilă la exercițiile mecanice de tip Daily Oral Language, oferind în schimb zece seturi de lecții aplicate, de la utilizarea virgulei seriale și a punctului și virgulă, până la construcția dialogului și a frazelor compuse.

Structura cărții este împărțită în două secțiuni fundamentale: o fundamentare teoretică ce redefinește instruirea editării și o parte practică, extrem de densă, dedicată „invitațiilor de editare”. Cititorii familiarizați cu A Sentence a Day de Samantha Prust vor aprecia aici profunzimea pedagogică; în timp ce Prust se concentrează pe exerciții zilnice rapide, Anderson invită la o analiză mai nuanțată prin texte mentor, încurajând elevii să observe cum alegerile gramaticale influențează vocea autorului.

Această lucrare continuă direcția începută de autor în Mechanically Inclined, unde acesta mărturisea că nu este un gramatician rigid, ci un pedagog interesat de funcționalitatea limbajului. Dacă în Patterns of Power, Grades 1-5 accentul era pus pe observarea convențiilor la scriitorii emergenți, Everyday Editing rafinează aceste tehnici pentru un context de atelier, unde editarea devine o unealtă de artizanat, nu doar o obligație procedurală. Credem că abordarea sa plină de spirit reușește să demistifice regulile gramaticale, transformându-le în decizii strategice pentru tinerii scriitori.

Despre autor

Jeff Anderson este un autor și pedagog renumit, apreciat pentru capacitatea sa de a face gramatica accesibilă și interesantă. Dincolo de contribuțiile sale în domeniul educației, Anderson are o carieră remarcabilă ca artist de romane grafice, fiind cunoscut pentru ilustrațiile sale din seria Essential Judge Dredd: America publicată de 2000AD. Această dualitate profesională — între rigoarea lingvistică și creativitatea vizuală a benzilor desenate pentru Marvel sau DC — îi conferă o perspectivă unică asupra modului în care structura și forma pot comunica sensul, element vizibil în stilul său de predare.


Descriere scurtă

Editing is often seen as one item on a list of steps in the writing process, usually put somewhere near the end, and often completely crowded out of writer' s workshop. Too many times daily editing lessons happen in a vacuum, with no relationship to what students are writing. In Everyday Editing , Jeff Anderson asks teachers to reflect on what sort of message this approach sends to students. Does it tell them that editing and revision are meaningful parts of the writing process, or just a hunt for errors with a 50/50 chance of getting it right,comma or no comma? Instead of rehearsing errors and drilling students on what' s wrong with a sentence, Jeff invites students to look carefully at their writing along with mentor texts, and to think about how punctuation, grammar, and style can be best used to hone and communicate meaning. Written in Jeff' s characteristically witty style, this refreshing and practical guide offers an overview of his approach to editing within the writing workshop as well as ten detailed sets of lessons covering everything from apostrophes to serial commas. These lessons can be used throughout the year to replace Daily Oral Language or error-based editing strategies with a more effective method for improving student writing.

Notă biografică

For the past 25 years, Jeff has worked with writers and teachers of grades, K-12, inspiring them about the power and joy of the writing process. He has written four books for Stenhouse Publishers: Mechanically Inclined, Everyday Editing, 10 Things Every Writer Needs to Know and his latest book with Dr. Deborah Dean of BYU Revision Decisions: Talking Through Sentences and Beyond (November 2014). He also has two middle grade novels, Zack Delacruz: Me and My Big Mouth (Sterling, 2015) and Zack Delacruz: Just My Luck (Sterling, October 2016). Jeff grew up in Austin, where he learned to love writing through journaling, a bit of positive reinforcement, and writing stories and dramas to entertain his friends on the phone. He wanted to become a teacher early on, but his parents tried to convince him otherwise. They wanted me to make more money. During an internship visit to a local elementary classroom, he made up his mind. When I saw those curious eyes, kids raising their hands, asking questions, I lost all track of time and from that moment on, I was a teacher. I want to create environments that feel safe for learners at the elementary, middle, and university levels and during professional development for teachers. Working together we figure out things, surprise each other, find our strengths, and experience the joy it is to be a learner and teacher. We are students and teachers to each other. Jeff specializes in writing, revision, and grammar. I love the ability to spark curiosity and creativity and to support students in finding their voices. That's pure joy. When it comes to his own professional development, he wants to explore things that have meaning to him in the classroom. I want to find out things I didn't know, be affirmed or reminded of what I do know, and be energized by thinking and action, reflection and application. Since that's what I want, that's what I give teachers. Something they can take, shape, and make their own. Something they can use right now. Jeff's first book Mechanically Inclined, came to life from what he didn't know and what he needed to know. I read, tried things out, played in my head and in my classroom, and read some more, permutating and refining. I thought about what worked and what didn't, as well as what sound pedagogical principles are used in other disciplines. His other books also came from his work in his own classrooms and those across the United States. The invitational process Everyday Editing is built around was first shared in workshops until teachers wanted another book on grammar. 10 Things was Jeff's chance to share what his experience had taught him are the essential things every writer needs to know and be able to do. In his first collaboration, Jeff and Debbie came together to tackle a sentence combining and its larger effects on revision and writing. In his free time, Jeff walks his dogs Carl and Paisley or sits on the deck with his partner Terry. When he's not doing that he reads middle grade novels and his new addiction is nonfiction.
