## About this book

Responsible Pedagogy, Volume 1, addresses the ongoing crises facing public higher education. Author Eric Detweiler examines how budget cuts and the rise of for-profit entities have led institutions to prioritize efficiency over the quality of teaching. This education text explores the history of rhetoric and writing in postsecondary settings, focusing on the precarious balance of authority and agency between students and teachers.

Detweiler critiques the traditional emphasis on mastery within communication studies and language arts. By integrating contemporary ethics and rhetorical theory, this volume proposes a pedagogy of responsibility that emphasizes mutual vulnerability. Responsible Pedagogy offers practical applications for writing curricula and teacher-student interactions while questioning the current reliance on educational technology. This work provides a framework for rehabilitating the role of the teacher in higher education.
