Creative Writing Pedagogies for the Twenty-First Century

The creative writing workshop: beloved by some, dreaded by others, and ubiqui tous in writing programs across the na tion. For decades, the workshop has been entrenched as the primary pedagogy of creative writing. In Creative Writing Pedagogies for the Twenty-First Cen tury, editors Alexandria Peary and Tom C. Hunley gather together contributing experts from both creative writing and composition studies-a discipline rich with a wide range of established peda gogies- to offer innovative alternatives to the traditional creative writing work shop.

Contributors in this volume pres ent fresh and inventive methods for the teaching of creative writing. Each chapter offers both a theoretical and a historical background for its respective pedagogi cal ideas, as well as practical applications for use in the classroom. This myriad of methods can be used either to supple ment the customary workshop model or as stand-alone roadmaps to engage and reinvigorate the creative process for both students and teachers alike.
