Students read and understand a variety of materials.
The intent of this unit is to provide a basic background for secondary school teachers to maintain student writing skills to a high standard throughout all disciplines, not just in for English teachers. Overview Effective written communication is a necessary skill in all jobs and walks of life. The intent of this unit is to help non-English teachers grow confident in assessing the performance level of their students' writing. Faculty members do, though, need specific knowledge of the different performance levels and reassurance that they not only may, but should , be assessing the writing of their students. The purpose of this unit, then, is to provide all teachers with some knowledge of those different performance levels and a workable system for assessing students' writing.
