Evaluation of a Writing Instruction Model That Integrated a Process Approach, Strategy Instruction, and Word Processing.

MacArthur, Charles A.; And Others

Learning Disability Quarterly, v18 n4 p278-91 Fall 1995

A model of writing instruction integrating word processing, strategy instruction, and a process approach, within a social context for writing as a meaningful task, was tested with 113 elementary students with learning disabilities. Students in experimental classes made greater gains in quality of their narrative and informative writing than did control group students. (Author/PB)
