这项研究最终发展,完善和评估的写作教学系统,即使教师对自己的写作能力没有很大的信心,帮助学生发展更好,更有效的写作技能和策略。该系统由两个部分组成,并向后工作,从教学生的评估策略(量规)将用于评估他们的工作。因此,第一个系统组件或标题成为一个指导,教学生如何连接他们的想法(句子主题)在顺序没有歧义或隐含的连接。该系统的第二个组成部分包括书面作业,以“工作订单”开始,具体说明了学生在每个段落中的期望,并包括格式说明。最后,该系统是为工程和技术教师在任何技术课程中使用而设计的,并结合了四个有影响力的专业写作协会的研究结果和建议:1)大学科技英语教师(EST),2)大学写作与交流会议(CCCC)评估委员会,3)全国英语教师理事会(NCTE),(4)跨课程写作(WAC)。
This study culminated in the development, refinement, and evaluation of a system of writing instruction that allows even instructors without great confidence in their own writing abilities to help students develop better, more effective writing skills and strategies. The system consists of two components and works backwards, starting with teaching students the assessment strategy (rubric) to be used in evaluating their work. Therefore, the first system component or rubric becomes a guide to teach students how to connect their ideas (sentence subjects) in sequence without ambiguity or implied connectivity. The second component of the system consists of written assignments initiated with “work orders” that state specifically what is expected of the student in each paragraph and includes formatting instructions. Finally, the system was designed for use in any technical curriculum by engineering and technology instructors and incorporates research findings and suggestions by four influential professional writing associations: 1) the college teachers of English for Science and Technology (EST), 2) the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) Committee on Assessment, 3) the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), and 4) Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC).
