Evaluating Writing Programs in Real Time: The Politics of Remediation

Barbara Gleason

Abstract

A case study of the evaluation of a three-year pilot project in mainstreaming basic writers at City College of New York suggests that the social and political contexts of a project need to be taken into account in the earliest stages of evaluation. This project’s complex evaluation report was virtually ignored by college administrators.
