ABSTRACT

We present this chapter in three sections: The Processes Writers Use, The Evaluation Processes Writers and Writing Instructors Use, and The Processes Writing Instructors Use. Initially, we present information about the processes writers use in classrooms, homes, and community centers when they are engaged in creating meaning of importance to them. Then we move into evaluation, an ongoing process used by writers and instructors as they review what they have done, are doing, and want to do next; they establish an ongoing evaluation loop driven by their determination to continuously improve. We end with views of instructors immersed in their craft, as they support and stretch the writers they teach.
