      These fit nicely into the ASU QEP.

    Recent studies show that literacy practices "are changing so rapidly that educators, students, and parents are unsure about how school literacy learning experiences and out-of-school literacy practices connect." However, "a majority of more than 900 educator-respondents to the NCTE poll indicate that … out-of-school literacy practices are as critical to students' development as what occurs in the classroom."

      QEP seeks to connect new knowledge to what the student already knows, which is key to connective knowledge.
  • Remember that writers have more authority when they can choose a topic that they are comfortable with.

      Building a sense of authority is key to good writing. Real writers always try to write from a position of relative authority. If they can't, then they ask good questions or keep quiet.

      In QEP, we seek first to encourage student writing, build participation, regardless of the kind or quality of the writing. Those issues emerge ONLY after people are writing in a group.
  • Once students do their writing, it's time to use their texts to build community.

      This is a key: we must find ways to pull student ideas into the classroom. This invests the students in their own learning and connects them to the class, the content, and to each other.
  • Using Anderson's project as a model, you can jump start community building in the classroom this fall. The first days of school can be very scary. As teachers, we need to make students feel comfortable with each other as quickly as possible. Writing is the answer. Welcome students as writers, give them advice and encouragement, and watch discussions about writing blossom as students build connections and encourage one another to write. And you can do it all in about 15 minutes a day!

  • asking students to share an artifact of their writing process that is significant—a favorite pen, something they have written, a diary. Anything.

    New students… bring with them literacy experiences from other classrooms, from their homes, and from their communities. The challenge is to figure out what they know and connect to that prior knowledge and experience as soon as possible. … Here are five strategies:
