Freitas, Kripa – Journal of Economic Education, 2023
Evidence suggests that active engagement with material as it is being taught improves learning. In-class multiple choice questions are a common way to introduce active learning. Low-stakes writing is another. The author of this article provides evidence that using a content-based low-stakes writing prompt with immediate group feedback during the…

Hallock, Robert M.; Bennett, Tara N. – Teaching of Psychology, 2021
The title of an article is the first chance at catching a reader's attention. We set to develop a list of title attributes that lead to attractive titles in psychology papers, which could then be used to help instruct undergraduate students on how to write good titles for their papers and projects. Currently, research into successful elements that…

Johan van Driel; Jannet van Driel; Carla van Boxtel – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
Historians often present their interpretation of the past in written accounts. In order to gain deeper knowledge of the discipline of history, students must learn how to read and write historical accounts. In this experimental pretest--posttest study, we investigated the impact of a domain-specific reading instruction followed by domain-specific…

Rabbi, Shakil – Across the Disciplines, 2020
Research on written communication shows that rhetorical knowledge is a key domain of disciplinary writing expertise (Gere et. al. 2019). Much of the recent work in this area has focused on the social dimensions of learning this knowledge. This article builds on these conversations with a presentation of two "advanced academic writers"…
