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(NLT)开创性的年度扫盲调查报告了十多年(2010-2022年)的研究表明，儿童和年轻人的写作动机和实践水平持续较低。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年，基于5-18岁的&gt；70,000)。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(69%对78%)相比，英格兰小学毕业的儿童写作水平低于预期水平。本项目旨在了解1)与儿童和青少年写作动机和实践有关的人口统计和发展因素，以及2)儿童和青少年写作动机、实践和他们的写作经验(信息和环境)之间的关系。为实现这一目标，国家扫盲中心将提供2024年年度扫盲调查(研究1，目标1)的数据，随后将对儿童和年轻人(总计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，根据研究1和2的信息，将创建一项新的写作调查，以衡量儿童和青少年的写作动机、做法和经历，以及人口统计信息和写作成绩(n=~600，8-16岁)(研究3，目标1和2)。该项目将在学生内部培养不同的研究技能(二级数据分析、定性和定量数据收集和分析、开放研究实践、数据管理、研究-实践伙伴关系、伦理标准、多样化传播方法)。与NLT密切合作，该项目将为他们现有的写作方案提供信息，有可能导致一个新的写作方案，并将为其开创性的年度扫盲调查的修订提供信息。利用不同的传播方法，该项目将向教育实践提供信息，以提高儿童和青年的写作动机和实践。
