Writing Matters: Recent Research in the Teaching of Writing
Writing Matters was a Fall 2005 program. It can be made available again. Please advise us of your interest.
Southcentral Pennsylvania Writing Project at Indiana University of Pennsylvania will host a workshop for school administrators on Tuesday, October 25, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Writing Matters: Recent Research in the Teaching of Writing is designed to introduce school administrators to research on writing and the best practices that result from what we know about writing and the teaching of writing.
Participants will:
· Be introduced to recent research on writing.
· Be introduced to research on professional development in writing.
· Engage in writing that will illustrate writing as a tool for learning and as a reflection of understanding.
