Partners in Teaching is an online community of composition and basic writing instructors. Two associated listservs, Teaching Composition and Teaching Basic Writing, address issues of pedagogy in theory and in practice. Their goal is to bring together senior members of the college composition community with newer members – junior faculty and teaching assistants – as well as adjuncts. Each month, major figures in the fields of composition and basic writing take turns leading discussions on issues of importance to people in the profession. We enthusiastically invite you to submit your own ideas for topics and potential contributions to these listservs. Please check out Teaching Composition at www.mhhe.com/tcomp and Teaching Basic Writing at www.mhhe.com/tbw and join the discussion.
