This Thursday everyone brought in their final two articles. The ones deemed helpful are listed below in case any of you would like to read up on them:
"Detection Diagnosis and the Stratefies of Revision"
-Linda Flower and John R. Hayes-JStor
"The Struggle itself: Teaching Writing as We Know We Should"-P.L Thomas--JStor
"Interactive Learning Through Web-Mediated Peer Review"-Nancy Trautmann--ASC
Reoccuring Themes To Ponder On:
1."Good Revision------------"Poor Revision"-There seems to be no gray area.
2."Discipline Specific"-We seem to only revise when writing for an English class and no place else.
3."Skip Revision"-It is non existent in alot of inexperienced writers' work.
4."Writer's Viewpoint"-It doesn't matter what anyone else says or the points they make, ultimately it is up to the writer whether or not to revise.
5."No Correct/Single Answer"-There is still no way to know if revision is correct.
6."Feedback"-This seems to play a big role in revising, but it depends on who it comes from and how honest they are.
7."More Research to be Done"-It is still early in the research done so far, so there are still alot of loose ends.
8."Writing is Revision and can Occur Anytime"-Again no set process of revision, the recursive and linear models are perfect examples.
And finally here are some points of disagreement:
Theory and Practice
1.Feedback/Extent
2.Revision can be practiced differently in other languages
3.Revision=Writing and then more writing to explain what you just wrote.
Missing Gaps
1.Student Point of View
2.No real conclusions/definitions
