Summary:

"Stenberg responds to the neoliberal discourse that pervades academe through the vernacular practice of repurposing. She demonstrates how tactics informed by feminist praxis can repurpose current writing pedagogy, assessment, and public engagement. Stenberg disrupts the entrenched mode of neoliberalism enacted through local practices in the classroom using feminist scholarship's history of repurposing seemingly "neutral" practices"-- Provided by publisher.
