Having the ability to communicate our thoughts, feelings, ideas and information effectively determines how successful we can be as individuals both in a school, workplace, home and wider world context (Anderson, 2001 & Gadd, 2017). Writing is probably the most challenging of ways to communicate.
Our job as educators is to embrace and nurture a culture that holds writing as a creative process that empowers our students and provides them with opportunities to develop their view of the world, through contexts that are real and meaningful. It requires us to:
- constantly innovate,
- make the teaching and learning visible,
- develop our pedagogy (alongside our content and technological knowledge),
- provide authentic contexts.
This site exists to help key educational stake holders improve their ability in teaching how to enhance writing through the use of an 'Enhancing writing framework'. It is intended that the framework will help to provide clarity about how to enhance writing in your classroom and could be used as a starting point to develop key aspects of your teaching practice.
