Writing portfolio for improving writing skills

Task Patterns

Description:
Giving students greater opportunities to revise their writing will lead to improved writing skills.

Implementation notes
1. Explaining the revising process clearly: writing goals, targeted audience, key elements, and assessment criteria.
2. Provide guided practice with oral feedback to help students understand that writing is a social process.
3. Set “multiple trials” and “do not store the submitted papers” on Turnitin for ongoing submissions of writing.
4. Provide rubric for students to self-monitor and evaluate their own work
