Strategies for Composition and Self Regulation (Cognitive Strategy Training Series)
This book is unique among current works on writing. First, it presents cognitive strategies for writing: sequences of specific steps which make the writing process clear, helping students organize their efforts on the writing task and understand how to turn thoughts into writing products. Second, the authors focus on helping the student become a self-regulation writer -aware and in control of the writing process. Actual samples of student writing — before, during and after instruction in individual strategies chart the radical improvements in content and organization.
