And it was at that age… Poetry arrived in search of me.<\/p>\n

I don’t know, I don’t know where it came from, from winter or a river.<\/p>\n

I don’t know how or when,<\/p>\n

No they were not voices, they were not words, nor silence,<\/p>\n

But from a street I was summoned,<\/p>\n

From the branches of night, abruptly from the others,<\/p>\n

Among violent fires,<\/p>\n

Or returning alone,<\/p>\n

there I was without a face<\/p>\n

and it touched me.<\/p>\n

As humans, writing\u2014whether it is fiction, history, of even science and technology\u2014is one of the primary ways in which we communicate and describe the world around us. Tomorrow evening, Sunday, October 10th, Andr\u00e9 Habet of the\u00a0School of Writing, Literature, and Film joins us on Inspiration Dissemination to discuss his thesis on rhetoric and composition teaching style in classrooms in Belize.<\/p>\n

After falling in love with poetry in High School in Belize, where he was raised, Andr\u00e9 decided to pursue a creative writing degree in the United States. Now Andr\u00e9 studies how\u00a0the process of writing itself is taught in the classroom, something that has a rich literature in the United States, but has been very little attention in the country of Belize.\u00a0In writing, composition is the form and style of putting a written work together. Different ways of teaching composition in school have different theoretical foundations and different ideological agendas, and these can sometimes have a powerful impact on the way we grow up to view the world around us.<\/p>\n
