Abstract: "This study focuses upon the Wisconsin Writing Project as an exemplar of current efforts at planned school change through staff development. The Wisconsin Writing Project is a local site of the National Writing Project, a staff development model for the dissemination of the paradigm of process-oriented composition instruction. The problem investigated is one of the conception and implementation of an effort at planned school change. The study explores the historical and philosophical roots of the paradigm of process-oriented composition instruction; defines and interprets the explicit and tacit assumptions, beliefs, practices, and goals of the National Writing Project; and traces the translation of the paradigm from the NWP summer institute curriculum model to implementation of the paradigm of process-oriented teaching of writing by four teachers at one rural secondary school. The study further suggests modifications to the National Writing Project summer institute model. |
