Book excerpt: Writing Mattersoffers writing instructors and students a four-part framework that focuses the rules and conventions of writing through a lens of responsibility, empowering students to own their ideas and to view their writing as consequential.Writing Mattershelps students recognize and respect their role in writing by focusing on four key areas of responsibility: Their responsibility to other writers, to their audience, to their topic, and to themselves.Howard's teaching experience has proven that students are more likely to write effectively and responsibly when they think of themselves as writers rather than as error-makers.Writing Mattersaddresses students respectfully as mature and capable fellow writers in the research and writing process.
