Writing on Demand empowers educators to equip students for timed writing tests while continuing to equip them for life.“What we need now is a revolution in writing instruction, not just another test prep exercise.”Brent Staples, New York Times , May 15, 2005“Perhaps what we need is greater faith in our students' abilities to understand that a test is an artificial construct. It requires a degree of expediency, but it's not a surrender of the soul.”Anthony J. Scimone, English Leadership Quarterly, Vol. 26, No. 3, 2004“The challenge for writing teachers is to support students without selling out, without abandoning best practices in favor of test preparation.”Anne Ruggles Gere, Education Week, February 2, 2005 | ||||||||
