E35 Elizabeth Kleinfeld and Julie Prebel on Disruptive Stories

Elizabeth Kleinfeld, Julie Prebel and Sohui Lee are the editors of the new book, Disruptive stories: Amplifying voices from the writing center margins, a collection of essays on challenging writing center narratives. In this episode, Professors Kleinfeld and Prebel explain what the two of them have learned and started applying from the book to question their own assumptions.

Mentioned in the episode:

Patricia Dunn's "⁠Chapter 4: Revising & Editing Myths, Metaphors, and Multisensory Strategies⁠" in ⁠Talking, Sketching, Moving: Multiple Literacies in the Teaching of Writing⁠.
Karen Moroski-Rigney's "⁠Chapter 9: Crippling Marginality: Disability and Directing a Writing Center⁠" in ⁠Disruptive Stories: Amplifying Voices from the Writing Center Margins.⁠
Episode 19: "Lucie Moussu on Poorly Designed Research Projects"
Episode 26 "Decolonization and the Writing Center" with Nancy Henaku

About the guests:

Elizabeth Kleinfeld teaches rhetoric and writing theory and practice courses in the English department, coordinates the new Disability Studies minor, and directs the Writing Center at Metropolitan State University of Denver. She is writing a memoir about being her husband’s caregiver and working on a scholarly project studying how the sex lives of disabled people are represented in memoirs. She is also a coach for the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity, an end-of-life doula, and a hospice volunteer.

Julie Prebel teaches courses in rhetorical theory, critical theory, and American cultural studies, and directs the Writing Center at Occidental College. Along with ongoing research in rhet-comp, she is currently working on a manuscript focused on the racialization of sentiment in (seemingly) feminist representations of rights discourse in literature and popular media. She presents her work regularly at national conferences such as IWCA, CCCCs, and the American Studies Association.
