The Public Turn

This semester I'm taking a class about the public turn in composition. It's tying in well with the other courses I'm taking in that they are all heavily based in theories of literacy (my "Theories of Literacy" course especially so). But I'm having some trouble with the concepts and terminology, so I thought I would try to create a blog about the class to help me work through it and give me a place where I can post my notes and things about it.
