The National Literacy Trust's (NLT) seminal Annual Literacy Survey has reported over a decade (2010 - 2022) of research demonstrating persistent low levels of writing motivation and practices among children and young people. Most recently, only 20.5% of children and young people reported choosing to write daily (Clark et al, 2022, based on >70,000, aged 5-18). In addition, the pandemic has had a considerable impact on writing levels, with 2022 government data illustrating that fewer children left primary school in England writing at the expected level compared with 2019 (69% vs. 78%). This project aims to understand 1) demographic and developmental factors associated with children and young people's writingmotivations and practices and 2) the relationship between children and young people's writing motivation, practices and their writing experiences (messages and environment). To achieve this, the NLT will provide access to the data from their 2024 Annual Literacy Survey (Study 1, Aim 1), and in-depth interviews with children and young people (total n = 60, aged 8-11; 11-14; 14-16) will follow (Study 2, Aim 2). Finally, a new writing survey will be created, informed by Study 1 and 2, to measure children and young people's writing motivations, practices and experiences, coupled with demographic information and writing attainment (n= ~600, age 8-16) (Study 3, Aims 1 and 2). The project will develop diverse research skills within the student (secondary data analysis, qualitative and quantitative data collection and analysis, open research practices, data management, research-practice partnership, ethical standards, diverse dissemination approaches). Working closely with NLT, this project will inform their existing writing programmes, has potential to lead to a new writing programmeand will inform revisions to their seminal Annual Literacy Survey. Using diverse dissemination approaches this project will inform educational practice to enhance children and young people's writing motivation and practices.

国家扫盲信托基金会（NLT）的开创性年度扫盲调查报告了十多年（2010 - 2022）的研究，表明儿童和年轻人的写作动机和实践水平持续低下。最近，只有20.5%的儿童和年轻人报告选择每天写作（Clark等人，2022，基于> 70，000，5-18岁）。此外，疫情对写作水平产生了相当大的影响，2022年的政府数据显示，与2019年相比，英格兰小学毕业时写作达到预期水平的儿童减少了（69%对78%）。本项目旨在了解1）与儿童和青少年的写作动机和实践相关的人口和发展因素，以及2）儿童和青少年的写作动机，实践和他们的写作经验（信息和环境）之间的关系。为了实现这一目标，NLT将提供其2024年年度扫盲调查（研究1，目标1）的数据，并将随后对儿童和青少年（共60名，年龄8-11岁; 11-14岁; 14-16岁）进行深入访谈（研究2，目标2）。最后，将创建一个新的写作调查，研究1和2的信息，以衡量儿童和青少年的写作动机，做法和经验，加上人口统计信息和写作成绩（n=约600，8-16岁）（研究3，目标1和2）。该项目将在学生中培养多样化的研究技能（二级数据分析，定性和定量数据收集和分析，开放式研究实践，数据管理，研究实践伙伴关系，道德标准，多样化的传播方法）。与NLT密切合作，该项目将为他们现有的写作计划提供信息，有可能导致新的写作计划，并将为他们开创性的年度扫盲调查的修订提供信息。该项目将采用多种传播方法，为教育实践提供信息，以增强儿童和青年的写作动机和实践。
