Crosstalk blog...............

I agree with Kent, I think writing is something that can not really be defined in set process. For example, the last couple of articles we have read have stated the prewriting is 85% of the process but then a scientific study was done that proved the opposite. Yes this was done with so called "unskilled" writers but science is involved and science is never wrong. I don't think there is one method of teaching writing, or revising for that matter. In school we learn there are at least three types of learning, seeing, feeling, sound, we have the cognitive and the connectionalism approaches to learning. So I think all of these past articles clue us in a bit closer to a form that fits us. Maybe the teachers should find a method that fits them rather then visa-versa.
