Postmodern Cultural Studies and the Politics of Writing Instruction

Bruce McComiskey

Abstract

Presents brief guidelines for developing writing assignments based on the author’s description (a politicized representation) of postmodern cultural studies. Discusses a composition assignment in which students critique the formal and the hidden curriculum of a class they have taken in the recent past, and in which they also become writing members of the institutions and communities they critique.
