Research/Results

The focus of this project is the improvement of students’ writing.  To that end, samples of students’ writing will be gathered across the project, and the papers will be evaluated for evidence of growth and development in writing.   Follow-up studies will assess inter-rater reliability between scorers of writing. 

The project presents significant opportunities for classroom action research on the part of K12 educators.  There are also opportunities for research into staff development, writing instruction and assessment, and preservice teacher development.
