Goals and Objectives of this Course:

• Use prompts about explicit writing instruction, to describe assumptions and insights of
  practitioners, researchers and self, including how the information relates to professional
  education practice and growth.
• Design a learning task to support the writer’s craft, focusing on higher-level skills of
  language and literary devices.
• Create an activity for students to collaborate as they engage in writing various text types
  and with attention to the structure of each type.
• Implement a routine to support transcription skills such as letter formation, phonics, spelling,
  morphology, or handwriting.
• Challenge the status quo to develop explicit instructional strategies for teaching sentence
  and paragraph construction.
