Student Attitudes Toward Writing
One shot – good enough Fostered by teacher only having time to
grade it once. Physical layout limitations of paper. “good enough” vs “my best”
“Good is the enemy of great.” –Voltaire
Teachable moments aren’t always between the bells.
Hurdles in the Way of Best Product
Limitations of written product space to insert clarifying details time to rewrite Perception of lost/wasted time

Feedback in the Past
Limited to drafts – same for each student Students were in a holding pattern until
feedback from teacher Not all students in the same stage of writing
at the same time
Modern Feedback to Writers
24-7 access Possibility of multiple rounds of
feedback and refinement Flexible timeline
A Healthy Balance
In the learning process, optimal flexibility
In the real world, often a need to get it right the first time.
Experience in revising and clarifying helps students recognize their common weaknesses and move these corrections to earlier stages in their writing process.
Students will learn to make these corrections themselves, resulting in better expressions of what they are thinking.
