The Untapped Power of Student Note Writing.

Jackson, Roberta M.

Educational Leadership, v49 n7 p54-58 Apr 1992

To gain insight into her students' natural styles of writing, one middle school teacher attempted to discover which students wrote notes, which developmental styles were being practiced, and how writing teachers could help. Capitalizing on students' notes to improve writing can succeed if teachers officially ban note writing and practice "selective vision." (13 references) (MLH)
