Question: What are the
effects of writing in school?
Answer: “A case study
of one fourth-grader’s writing processes which concludes that the student
exhibited school-conditioned responses such as more concern for form than
content and more concern for length than for effective expression.” A Seaman.
1975. P. 288.
Comment: I’m not sure what this finding means. Of
course, it’s a limited sample. Is privileging form and length what schools
emphasize? Just a question. RayS.
