Inviting The Mother Tongue: Beyond "Mistakes," "Bad English", And "Wrong Language", Peter Elbow Dec 1998

Inviting The Mother Tongue: Beyond "Mistakes," "Bad English", And "Wrong Language", Peter Elbow

Peter Elbow

This essay grows out of feeling torn between conflicting goals or obligations. I think most teachers of first year college writing courses also feel this conflict, and I experience it acutely as director of a university writing program. On the one hand, I feel an obligation not to force all my students to conform to the language and culture of mainstream English. (See “The Students’ Right To Their Own Language” [Committee].) On the other hand, I feel an obligation to give all my students access to the written language of power and prestige.

The Uses Of Binary Thinking, Peter Elbow

Peter Elbow

When thinkers encounter a contradiction they have traditionally tended to take one of three courses: to try to figure out which side is right; to figure out which side should be seen as hierarchially dominant; or to figure out or how to use a dialectic process synthesize them into a higher concept. In this essay I argue for the value of trying to learn to affirm both sides in all their contrariness.
