 [No title]
Handa’s essay not only is informative in its own right but also has helped me recognize some problematic pedagogical issues and outcomes associated with the design of the computer classroom we’ve utilized this spring in WR 420/520.
Drawing on her own experience, Handa discusses the pedagogical implications of, and learning dynamics within, teacher-centered classrooms, in which students (and their computers) are arranged in rows, with the teacher’s station located up front.
In addition, as Handa observes, locating the teacher’s station (at which students can also sit) within this student desk grouping “suggests to the students that the instructor is more like another colleagueÂ…instead of being the ultimate authority for whom they produce all their writing” (107).

Handa immediately remembered how two years ago -- under another mayor -- the city had taken over the pressroom and decided to keep it open from 8 am to 6 pm because Handa was using the room more than other reporters.
Now the city has told Handa he cannot have a key to the pressroom, which means he will strictly have to abide by the regular schedule.
Handa and his supporters believe the city is not interested in following the rules as such but in limiting his access.
