This expanded and final print edition of The Quarterly of the National Writing Project celebrates the journal's twenty-seven-year history with reprints of fifteen vital and still relevant articles.
Beginning with writing project founder Jim Gray's 1979 piece that raises questions about the value of a writing achievement test that demands "twenty minutes of fluency," this retrospective issue takes readers on a journey through some of the major literacy issues of our time.
Focusing on topics such as teacher research, standards, equity, technology, ELL instruction, and the nature of the writing process, this issue of The Quarterly provides strong evidence of the writing project's assumption that significant expertise resides in the hands of classroom teachers.
