Gelmez, Koray; Bagli, Humanur – Design and Technology Education, 2015
Reflective writing is an efficient way of getting feedback from students.

This study focuses on reflections captured from students via two different media--personal magazine and…

Lawrence, Joshua Fahey; Galloway, Emily Phillips; Yim, Soobin; Lin, Alex – Journal of Adolescent & Adult Literacy, 2013
Despite the emphasis on increasing the frequency with which students engage in analytic writing, we know very little about the "writing diet" of adolescents. Student notebooks, used as a daily record of in-class work, provide one source of evidence about the diversity of writing expectations that students face. Through careful…

Wendt, Maria; Åse, Cecilia – Studies in Higher Education, 2015
Essay-writing is generally viewed as the primary learning activity to foster independence and analytical thinking.

University-level education on conducting independent projects can, in several respects, counteract enhanced analytical skills.…
