Writers and writing

«The writer is a lonely figure cut off from the stimulus and corrective of listeners. He must be a predictor of reactions and act on his predictions. He writes with one hand tied behind his back, being robbed of gesture. He is robbed too of the tone of his voice and the aid of clues the environment provides. He is condemned to monologue; there is no one to help out, to fill the silences, put words in his mouth, or make encouraging noises. »

Harold Rosen (1981), in Hedge, Tricia, Writing, Resource Books for Teachers, OUP

Por acaso esta colecção tem coisas mesmo muito interessantes! Acho que ia agradar ao colega, mais do que os livros tlébicos :-)
Boa prática pedagógica supervisionada
