Geocomposition in Public Rhetoric and Writing Pedagogy
Nathaniel A. Rivers
College Composition and Communication, v67 n4 p576-606 2016
Geocomposition engages students in writing on the move in order to explore how such writing composes the multiple layers of public places. This article describes a collaborative, location-based composition project designed for students to rhetorically engage a responsive public through locative media: media that work in and through specific sites.
