About the Author:
"Bringing research into the classroom is no easy task. The key, of course, lies in teachers' knowledge about research-based practices and their willingness to implement them. Troia et al. tackle this issue head-on, providing a valuable and much-needed guide for putting the latest advances in writing research into practice. This is a 'must-have' book for anyone interested in improving writing instruction in today’s schools." - Steve Graham, Currey-Ingram Professor of Special Education and Literacy, Vanderbilt University, USA
"There's a central place on my bookshelf and in my college writing classroom for this book. This well-crafted volume weaves practical classroom understandings with up-to-date research. From using technology effectively in the classroom to preparing students for large-scale writing assessments, the contributors grapple with current challenges and offer rich ideas for instruction and teacher professional development." - Richard Kent, Associate Professor and Director, Maine Writing Project, College of Education and Human Development, University of Maine, USA
"Troia et al. provide a source for finding research that can enhance the effectiveness of teachers of writing.
