520 |a Based on five years of classroom experimentation, this book presents a highly practical yet transformational philosophy of teaching argumentative writing. In his course Arguing as an Art of Peace, the author uses the open hand to represent an alternative approach to argument, asking students to argue in a way that promotes harmony rather than divisiveness and avoiding conventional conflict-based approaches. The author cultivates a bodily investigation of noncombative argument, offering direct pedagogical strategies anchored in three modalities of learning - conceptual-procedural, kinesthetic, and contemplative - and projects, activities, assignments, informal responses, and final papers for students. Kinesthetic exercises derived from martial arts and contemplative meditation and mindfulness practices are key to the approach, with the author specifically using movement as a physical analogy for tactics of arguing.
