Books & Ideas for Next Time

Recommendations from Meredith Taylor:

Campbell, Karlyn Kohrs., and Thomas R. Burkholder. Critiques of Contemporary Rhetoric. Belmont: Wadsworth Pub, 1997.

Campbell, Karlyn Kohrs., and Susan Schultz. Huxman. The Rhetorical Act: Thinking, Speaking, and Writing Critically. 3rd ed. Belmont, CA, USA: Thomson/Wadsworth, 2003.

Two other ideas:

1. Use OWL to introduce rhetoric and just have the students write a ton of papers, evaluations, proposals, classical arguments, etc. 

2. Focus the course on rhetorical genre theory.
