In the 1950s, they operated in stealth, within an ideology suspicious of collaboration. Collaborative pedagogies blossomed in the protests of the 1960s and continued into the 1980s with the social turn in composition theory. Twenty-first-century collaborative practices influenced by pragmatism are found in writing centers, feminist pedagogies, and computer-mediated instruction. Mara Holt argues that as composition changes with the influence of ecological and posthuman theories, there is evidence of a significant pragmatist commitment to evaluating theory by its consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mara Holt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0814107303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814107300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Council of Teachers of English (Ncte\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 163\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.50h x 8.30w x 0.60d","brand":"Mara Holt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47202184921343,"sku":"9780814107300","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7690da1b-91c0-4b05-bf84-6dbb51a0f762.jpg?v=1756819871","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/collaborative-learning-as-democratic-practice-mara-holt-9780814107300","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
