Abstract | This discussion gives a rationale for providing options for extrapolation within the context of composition topics. Whether topics are specified by someone other than the writer or are self-chosen, they "fructify" according to the composer's sense of purpose and audience. Developing such a sense has not been a prominent part of the typical school composition assignment. A teacher can productively intervene in the invention process by constructing assignments that do not restrict subject matter but that do invite extensive exploration of specific composer/audience/subject relationships. Heightening students' awareness of these relationships can be a more helpful teaching strategy than the invocation of customary conventions of composition form. (KS) |
