Reflection In The Writing Classroom: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Reflection In The Writing Classroom" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Yancey explores reflection as a promising body of practice and inquiry in the writing classroom. Yancey develops a line of research based on concepts of philosopher Donald Schon and others involving the role of deliberative reflection in classroom contexts. Developing the concepts of reflection-in-action, constructive reflection, and reflection-in-presentation, she offers a structure for discussing how reflection operates as students compose individual pieces of writing, as they progress through successive writings, and as they deliberately review a compiled body of their work-a portfolio, for example. Throughout the book, she explores how reflection can enhance student learning along with teacher response to and evaluation of student writing. Reflection in the Writing Classroom will be a valuable addition to the personal library of faculty currently teaching in or administering a writing program; it is also a natural for graduate students who teach writing courses, for the TA training program, or for the English Education program.

Preface
THIS VOLUME GREW OUT OF A FOCUSED INQUIRY: WHAT CONVERSATIONS, I wanted to ask, could we have around texts in order to foster reflective habits of mind? What you'll read in the following pages constitutes my attempt at an extended answer. Because it is a book-length volume, I've taken the luxury of thinking about this question in multiple ways: theoretically, pragmatically, andI hopereflectively. I've located my responses to this focused inquiry within my own practice, to be sure, but I've tried both to theorize that practice and to make it visible so that others can read themselves into this story as well. Ultimately, as I hope is apparent, I'm as interested in the questions raised in the process of inquiry as I am in the answers we construct. They are foundation and means of reflection, both.
More specifically, what I've done here is to re-theorize Donald Schon's theory of reflection for use in the writing classroom, and in that process to think about how we might use reflection as a mode of helping students develop as writers. I've written this volume, then, because I think through reflection we can change both the teaching and learning of writing. What I also do here is show how we might begin making some of those changes, and suggest some of what weteachers and studentscould learn if we understood the writing classroom as a reflective practicum, as a new kind of writing classroom, one where students are writers, reflection is woven into the curriculum, and practice becomes art.
I was fortunate in having the support of many at my institution, the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. In particular, I want to thank the University, the Faculty Grants Committee, and Dean Schley Lyons for an academic leave to support this work.

There are several people whose contributions to this project I'd like to acknowledge. Michael Spooner, my editor and friend: (again) thanks. Also: Irwin Weiser and Afhild Ingberg, for reading sympathetically and resisting helpfully; Charles Schuster, for encouraging me in this intellectual work; Diana George, for helping me see that reflection provides one means of faculty development; Doug Hesse, Jeff Sommers, and Robert Calfee for their responses to some of my earlier work on reflection; the members of Portnet (especially Michael Allen, Pat Belanoff, Bill Condon, Mary Kay Crouch, Cheryl Forbes, Marcia Dickson, George Meese, and Robert Marrs) for listening to me talk about relfection endlessly (it must have seemed); Sandy Murphy, who encouraged me to link reflection to assessment more theoretically; Sam Watson for pointing me toward Donald Schon; Brian Huot and Meg Morgan, for keeping me straight; Connie Rothwell, Fowler Bush, and Al Maisto, for encouraging my work in reflection in the honors program; my colleagues Mike Pearson, Christie Amato, and Mike Corwin, for inviting me into their classes and allowing me to work with their students.
