Persuasive Writing and Reading
“Reports a study of whether sixth-graders’ ability at writing persuasive discourse can be improved by guided practice in writing persuasive discourse and reading persuasive discourse.” [Comment: Result inconclusive. Sounds like a good idea to try. RayS.]
Basic Writers: A Speak-Write Approach
“…procedure in which writers were asked to draft a writing, then deliver an oral monologue on the subject of the writing, then revise the writing.” [Comment: Another “results inconclusive.” But the idea is interesting. RayS.]
