Revision

Annotated Research

Question: Can teachers’ comments help children to revise?

Answer: “Indicated that prompting revision by teacher probes can produce better writing than can more generalized comments.” A Robinson. 1985. P. 427.

Comment: Not sure what is meant by “teacher probes.” But I can guess. If the comments produce revision, they are “teacher probes.” RayS.
