What is SRSD?
Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD) is a research-based approach to teaching writing. Students learn explicit strategies for planning, organizing, drafting, revising, and editing their writing.

What is SRSD?
Our district uses the POWER, TIDE-L, and C-SPACE strategies to help students become confident, strategic, and independent writers.
Why SRSD?
SRSD gives students a consistent, step-by-step approach to writing while helping them develop the strategies and confidence they need to become independent writers.
The Self-Regulation Component
A key part of SRSD is teaching students how to manage themselves as writers. Students learn strategies for setting goals, monitoring their progress, working through challenges, and evaluating their own writing.
The Self-Regulation Component
A key part of SRSD is teaching students how to manage themselves as writers. Students learn strategies for setting goals, monitoring their progress, working through challenges, and evaluating their own writing.
SRSD also teaches students to use positive self-talk to build confidence and persistence. Students learn to replace negative thoughts such as “I can't do this” with productive statements such as “I can use my strategy,” “I can take this one step at a time,” or “I know what to do next.”
Over time, these strategies help students become more independent writers who can approach challenging writing tasks with greater confidence and persistence.
