Abstract:

English Composition Teacher's Guidebook: How to Survive (and Even Thrive) as a
Part-time or Adjunct Instructor is a practical and motivational handbook for
the multitudes of itinerant English adjunct and part-time instructors who
travel between multiple colleges and universities teaching English composition
to students from different cultures and age groups. The book offers advice and
recommendations that are geared specifically for this audience together with
sufficient ready-to-use teaching material for a semester-long first-year
composition course. The author uses imagined collegial conversations over
coffee and hiking and coaching themes to draw lessons for teachers, beginning
each chapter with a vignette based on his experiences hiking in scenic
locations. The book contains materials for students that can be projected or
copied as handouts, including work on sentence combining and analysis as well
as topics, peer response sheets, and assessment rubrics for essay assignments.
Both the hiking vignettes and classroom activities are illustrated by
photographs which add to the interest and enjoyment of reading this book.
