Book excerpt: This book examines nearly 30 years of research to identify how teachers can incorporate writing instruction that helps students master the course content and improve their overall achievement. Building on the recommendations of the National Commission on Writing, authors Vicki Urquhart and Monette McIver introduce four critical issues teachers should address when they include writing in their content courses: Creating a positive environment for the feedback and guidance students need at various stages, including prewriting, drafting, revising, and editing; Monitoring and assessing how much students are learning through their writing; Choosing computer programs that best enhance the writing process; Strengthening their knowledge of course content and their own writing skills.

Book excerpt: The third in a series on content area writing instruction, this booklet is intended for high school teachers who have taught writing, but who want to move into content writing topics and for teachers who are novices at teaching writing but who think content writing instruction might be an important skill to teach their students. The three sections of the booklet demonstrate how content area instruction can be integrated into existing curricula, enhancing instruction rather than being a separate component. The first section offers some basic principles and procedures that show how to start content writing in the classroom. The second section offers specific model units and lessons. The third section, concerned with applications and extensions, shows teachers how to move beyond the sample lessons to develop specific materials for their own classrooms and includes a discussion of evaluation and grading of content area writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of America's most respected writing professors-practical, motivating strategies for making writing a tool for learning, and for integrating it into content area instruction. This resource helps new and veteran teachers work smarter, not harder. Prompted by a "near-total neglect of writing" in content areas outside English, and drawing on the work of expert teachers, Bill Strong shows how write-for-insight coaching strategies enhance content learning. The clear, personal voice of the book-coupled with its rich examples-has made the first edition a "thumbs-up" favorite with National Writing Project sites across the nation. Early chapters of the book show how expressive writing can spark active learning; the later chapters demonstrate how public writing can extend student knowledge, preparing students for future success in academic and employment arenas. Written by a masterful teacher of teachers, the book's friendly, thought-provoking style is appropriate for both in-service and pre-service teachers in diverse disciplines.

Download or read book The Writing Process in Action written by Jackie Proett and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for English teachers early in their careers and for teachers retraining to teach English, and applicable to English/language arts classrooms across all grade levels, this guide offers practices drawn from classroom experience and from writing project experience that implement a tenable, successful theory of learning to write. The introductory section to the guidebook discusses traditional theories about how students learn to write, writing as a process and as rhetorical choice, and the multiple functions of writing, and lists the premises about writing instruction upon which this manual is based. The first section focuses on prewriting activities such as logs, brainstorming, outlining, and oral activities; while activities in the second section concern various aspects of the writing process, including fluency and decision-making in writing, choices of rhetorical stance and content, and organizational patterns. The activities in the third section center on revision, proofreading, and evaluation after writing; while those in the fourth section present ways to highlight student writing to give classroom writing a realism usually lacking. Activities presented in the fifth section stress writing to learn in the content areas, and include writing to learn and writing to test learning. The last section of the guidebook is a source file for teachers and includes variations on book reports, composition activities, sample editing and response forms, journal starters, and framing patterns.
