Explaining My Opinion by My Own Words: Considerations for Teaching Linguistically Different Basic Writers

Carole Center

Abstract

Contrastive rhetoric provides tools that community college teachers need in order to understand the rhetorical forms that students from other cultures employ. Greater understanding of contrastive rhetoric can change the way that teachers interpret the difficulty linguistically different students may have in using conventional American academic writing patterns and can provide new avenues for teaching those patterns.
