What does Bartholomae mean when he says that students must “invent the university” when they write in college?

What does Bartholomae suggest is a way for students to become “insiders” within academic discourse?

Summarize some of the differences between the two examples of student writing that Bartholomae examines, and Bartholomae’s opinion of these examples.

Answers ::

1. Bartholomae ment that students must find themselves when they write. The creativity lies within them as a person and when you dig down and reveal your true writting that bascially your classroom that you invented yourslef in.

2. To wirte and find out who they are and who they are not. The academic discourse is pretty much your personality or ways that make you tick.

3. The first essay was more about invintng the university but not truly knowing yourslef or your inner creativity it was just a surface scrape. The second essay really got deep into the person and brought out the creativity in that individual.
