He draws on his analysis and on a comprehensive review of the literature on response to introduce a constructivist heuristic for response aimed at both composition instructors and instructors across disciplines. Melzer argues that teachers and researchers should focus less on teacher response to individual pieces of student writing and more on engaging in dialogue with student self-assessment and peer response, focusing on growth and transfer rather than products and grades. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eReconstructing Response to Student Writing\u003c\/i\u003e, especially when taken together with Melzer's previous book \u003ci\u003eAssignments across the Curriculum\u003c\/i\u003e, provides a comprehensive and large-scale view of college writing and responding across the curriculum in the United States.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46445801799831,"sku":"9781646423675","price":2690.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781646423675.webp?v=1769135332","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/reconstructing-response-to-student-writing-a-national-study-from-across-the-curriculum-9781646423675","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
