Schirmer, Barbara R.; Bailey, Jill; Fitzgerald, Shawn M.

Exceptional Children, v65 n3 p383-97 Spr 1999

A study explored whether a writing-assessment rubric could be used as an effective teaching strategy with 10 deaf children (grades 5 through 7). From fall to spring, students showed significant improvement in four writing qualities and no significant improvement in five qualities. The ability to individualize rubrics is discussed.
