Self Realization Publications: Child Development: Teaching Writing: A Process Approach—Level 1 In sports, a good coach is part of the team, and emphasizes participation rather than final scores. This video outlines a similar approach to the teaching of writing: the process model, in which the instructor treats students as fellow writers involved in a creative and unpredictable progression of ideas and actions. With commentary from veteran writing instructors—including Dr. Lois Matz Rosen, author of Within and Beyond the Writing Process in the Secondary English Classroom, and Michael Steinberg, author of The Writer’s Way: A Process Approach to Writing—the video explores individual and group activities that facilitate steps in the process. Real-life classroom scenes showcase teachers achieving results by circulating among students with encouragement and constructive advice. Accompanying the video is a workbook containing a teacher workshop outline and activities, as well as teacher resources, tools, and student-based learning projects. A stylish, inspiring guide to an effective and thoroughly tested teaching method, the Teaching Writing package offers a winning game plan for any composition, journalism, or creative writing instructor. A viewable/printable teacher’s guide is available at www.cambridgeeducational.com. A Cambridge Educational Production. video
