Produktbeschreibung

This book provides pre-service Caribbean teachers and educators with contextually tested, robust strategies and ways of thinking about writing instruction which will improve their students' writing proficiency. It engages with the post-colonial context of Caribbean language teaching to offer a pedagogical methodology that is distinctive in its approach to the teaching of writing within the Caribbean and its diaspora.

It offers a wealth of examples, strategies, activities and tasks that are culturally sensitive to support the practice of writing educators in secondary and post-secondary institutions, teacher educators involved in teacher preparation, students studying at the university level in the Caribbean, as well as practitioners and researchers in the practice of Caribbean approaches to the teaching of writing to students within the diaspora. Written by experts and practitioners whose content and pedagogical experience with writing instruction spans primary, secondary and tertiary level classrooms, the 14 chapters are underpinned by evidence-informed practice. The text includes authentic classroom examples as well as templates and tools for educators.

This is a key resource for educators teaching writing across all levels, pre-service teachers and teacher educators in the Caribbean, as well as researchers and scholars in language and literacy education.
