Not Just for English Classes Writing Skills Essential in Tech Ed Today

摘要

School districts across the nation have pursued writing across the curriculum since the early 1980s. But writing is something that many technology educators are just starting to implement in our classes. Some instructors have shown a lot of apprehension about including writing in their curriculum and daily assignments. After taking a writing course last summer, I've grown very aware of how important writing is in all subject areas, including technology education. I've conducted some research and surveys that I think can help to convince more technology teachers that writing across the curriculum is important to help all our students succeed now and in the future.
