Balance the Basics
One in a series of papers presented at an internal Foundation seminar on research on learning in the mid-1970's. This paper argues for the importance of writing along with reading and mathematics in the basic educational curriculum, examines reasons why writing is neglected and sets forth approaches for improving the teaching of writing, particularly the process-conference method. The author won the David H. Russell Award for Distinguished Research in English and Teaching of English for this publication.
