Running Shoes, Auto Workers, and Labor: Business Writing Pedagogy in the Working-Class College

Raymond A. Mazurek

Abstract

Considers how the introductory business writing course is appropriate for the development of critical literacy, especially for students at second-tier, working-class colleges. Notes that the opposition between labor and management offers rich opportunities for the critical examination of corporate rhetoric, opportunities that are as relevant in business writing class as they are in other courses.
