This collection of essays, qualitative studies, and conversations explores the challenges and opportunities of writing instruction at two- and four-year colleges with at least 25% Hispanic enrollments. The authors — all experienced educators — address the geographic and cultural differences among Latino student populations that inform their attitudes toward writing, as well as their identities as learners; the complex relationship between educators and learners; and the challenges of developing a writing pedagogy that supports these learners.
