Scouting For A Tomboy: Gender-Bending Behaviors In Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird, Laura Hakala
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, Scout Finch challenges gender stereotypes in her determination to remain a tomboy. Scout interacts with five parental characters (Atticus, Calpurnia, Aunt Alexandra, Miss Maudie, and Boo Radley), who offer models for Scout's behaviors. Though primarily unconventional in terms of gender, these parental figures fluctuate between ideals, demonstrating that gender is an unstable standard that alters according to each individual. Lee depicts characters who resist conforming to the paradigms of masculinity and femininity and instead fill middle positions between the stereotypes, as Scout's tomboyism exemplifies. After encountering different models, Scout consistently exhibits these genderbending …

Bringing Filmmaking Into The English Language Arts Classroom, Bruce Robbins
Bruce Robbins
Like many English teachers, I recognize the need to adapt to the world of new media, not only to stay connected to the lives of students, but also because, as the NCTE statement goes on to point out, "with multiple opportunities for student expression in the English language arts classroom, these nonprint media offer new realms for teachers of composition" and, I would add, for language and literature. When I summoned the strength to peer over the barrier of learning new technologies (as I am quite comfortable with the old ones), I caught a glimmer of new possibilities for teaching …

The Death Of Elizabeth I: Remembering And Reconstructing The Virgin, Catherine Loomis
Catherine A. Loomis
The death of Queen Elizabeth I in 1603 was greeted by an outpouring of official proclamations, gossip-filled letters, tense diary entries, diplomatic dispatches, and somber sermons. English poets wrote hundreds of elegies to Elizabeth, and playwrights began bringing her onto the stage. This book uses these historical and literary sources, including a maid of honor’s eyewitness account of the explosion of the Queen’s corpse, to provide a detailed history of Elizabeth’s final illness and death, and to show Elizabeth’s subjects—peers and poets, bishops and beggars, women and men—responding to their loss by remembering and reconstructing their Queen.

It Works For Me: Becoing A Publishing Scholar/Researcher, Charlie Sweet, Hal Blythe
Charlie Sweet
The authors’ purpose in this book is to provide “a collection of practical tips drawn from real-life experiences.” We believe this particular book is so important to share with today’s audience, we almost called it Take My Book, Please! On the other hand, does the scholarly world need another book on the importance of scholarship? Further, if the book standard for tenure is slowly disappearing because so many academic presses are closing, why would we bother to write one? And recent studies show that new faculty members consider university employment a 9:00-5:00 job, so doesn’t that leave out time for …

These are my reasons for hosting a photo contest for NDOW. I hope my rationale along with the sources I site can contribute to an ongoing conversation about what writing and writing instruction are—and should be—in the twenty-first century.
