Constructing Experiential Learning In The Language Arts Classroom, Terrylee Hutton Marzell
Theses Digitization Project
Recent research in educational practice has identified and emphasized the value of connecting school curriculum to the personal experiences of the students; but to be effective, learners must possess a collection of baseline experiences the teacher can connect new learnings to. If the baseline experiences are lacking, the instructor could choose to create a classroom experience upon which to build additional learnings.

Unlimiting Writers' Agency And Alleviating Writer's Block, Cassundra Lynett Flemister-White
Unlimiting Writers' Agency And Alleviating Writer's Block, Cassundra Lynett Flemister-White
Theses Digitization Project
This thesis examines two causes of writer's block developed during the revision stage of the composing process: instructors' unexplained notations and unwanted voice alterations within students' texts. The study examines the emotions students experience caused by instructors' actions which Nelson and Rose say contribute to temporary and even permanent cases of writer's block. After exemplifying the connection between emotions and writer's block, the remainder of the study focuses on finding solutions to these causes of writer's block. As a result of my research, I discovered the primary solution is communication between instructors and students.

Assessment And Collaborative Writing: Conflict To Complement, John Michael Sullivan
Assessment And Collaborative Writing: Conflict To Complement, John Michael Sullivan
Theses Digitization Project
One of the fundamental problems facing writing instructors who use collaboration is that traditional assessment measures, such as in-class essay exams, undermine rather than support such writing activities that are rooted in social construction theory. While the use of collaboration in writing classrooms continues to grow, the field of assessment remains virtually silent about the compatibility of traditional assessment methods with collaborative writing tasks such as group work and peer review. This thesis discusses social construction and assessment theories, their relation to collaboration, and the current role of both in writing classrooms.
