Nilüfer Parsak Adana Turkey I am an english teacher also my other field is Turkish I mean I am dealing with language there are lots of things to say about the importance of writing in teaching science but the most important one is that students cant solve problems or cant pass exams since they dont understand instructions if language is integrated with science teaching students will understand it and they can express themselves better writing activities should be part of science teaching as I always say to my friends teaching science but they have always neglected my thougts students can learn science by reflecting their thoughts with different writing activities in my country teachers write on the board then students copy them on their notebooks

# data[].attributes.body
I think that writing makes science meaningful for students. The students are processing the informations deeper when they write.

# data[].attributes.body
I think writing is very important to reflect knowledge and consolidate that as well. It helps if you truly understand something and you can express it with your own words or not and shows what you might need to look at again.

writing to learn activities help to reach a higher level of quality in knowledge

# data[].attributes.body
Writing will help students to learn and understand things, that they've done. It's a way to fix knowledge, but also save their thoughts, observations and solutions.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing is a very good method to fix things that have been learned. It is also a good and informative way to remember things and to read and repeat.

Writing is not only a specifical caractheristic of literacy or language subjects but it can improve the understanging of science. Not dicatation but writing to control and improve the possibility to learn better sceince subject, to reflect on specific concepts. Not only memorizing but explore the meanings of science

Writing helps the student realise if they understand the concept or not. Often we think we understand something but it is when we go to write it that we realise we don't.
Putting their ideas down on paper provides a better chance of remembering the learning and gives them structure and a chance to explain with correct reasoning an idea or concept.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing to learn activities help students in understanding and putting complicated concepts into their own words. If a student can do that it is hopeful their results will improve as a result.

# data[].attributes.body
As I said before, it helps to structure the ideas and get better comprehension of the topic

# data[].attributes.body
writing to Learn helps students to formulate their ideas in their mind before/during the time they are actually writing the information down.
For visual learners,  the image of their own writing is familiar and so they can retain this information more/ As they are writing they are processing the information in their brain also therefore they are relearning it both mentally and through writing it down.
writing keyword, mindmaps etc also helps students in a better understanding and revision of topics

How do Writing to Learn Activities contribute to students’ results?
If they get good instructions - they  learn better. When students use writing as dictations - it It is better for their perception. It help students to understand language also.
In your opinion how do writing to learn activities contribute to students’ results?
It is really important for ex.math. If my students will do more writing exercises then they remember formulas better and get better grades.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing helps students to understand and to learn the topics because they should tink and analyze ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing requests clearer ideas than speaking, so students are necessarily encouraged to have a reasoning behind their ideas and to be able to support their theories.

# data[].attributes.body
The student can refer to writing thinking. He tries to prove his ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
using writing activities for the purpose of learning contribute students' use of productive skills since writing is a productive language skill.

# data[].attributes.body
As I previously mentioned, you can get to know the student with just lookig at what they write and how. Also it is very helpful for the students when it comes to learning, studying, explaining... It allows them to structure everything they've learnt.

# data[].attributes.body
VERY GOOD

# data[].attributes.body
Writing can help students to visualize their thoughts and put hem into words. In my opinion, this again is an essenial part of learning as it allows to categorize and structure the learned information.

Conceptualisation. Finding connections, analysis, synthesis. That all increase scientific literacy in pupils.

Writing forces to have a draft in mind about what you want to say, then organise the main ideas and expose some examples or argues about you are writing about, and finally to conclude with a clear idea as a take home message. It is not easy to do so, and it’s necessary to practise it many times in order to achieve the goal.

# data[].attributes.body
Enable students to better understand the topic, improve their conceptual knowledge, to clarify their ideas and make their learning more meaningful.

WtoL contributes to the awareness of students' own thoughts, progresses, possibilities and, finally, goals through the development of a critical thinking.
But students need first to be patient and allow the teacher to guide them to the constant use of an operational notebook, or even a diary,  where to write their own ideas and thoughts.
The sooner they get used to WtoL, the better are the more enduring are the results they get.

# data[].attributes.body
My observation: During thinking flow is fast. Most of the time it is not considered what it is. Writing allows to think again and again. It allows to structure and see thoughts

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion the writing contributes to organize our thoughts and our knowledges, helps to quicker learning and constrains to think about the problems deeply.

While writing something down, our brain tends to visualise the notes we took as a picture, this goes especially for people with a good visual memory. This may help students during a test, as they might remember where they have read somethin they have written down before, which can then help them with linking a path in their brain to get to the answers they need. Apart from that, I believe that writing the things you learn down while learning it helps with memorisation, therefore the results are better.

# data[].attributes.body
By taking notes students are able to analyse and reflect on them. Furthermore, you build connections in your head while writing something down, that helps to learn more easily.

# data[].attributes.body
By writing, they learn to exchange thoughts and ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
accelerates learning, delays forgetting, improves critical and thinking skills, and plays a role in the rapid access to information

# data[].attributes.body
I think that writing helps the student to reflect before exposing a content, to analyze the individual part in order to create relationships cause-effect

# data[].attributes.body
writing forces you to generate ideas, encourages reflection, thinks it makes memorizing content easier, whether it's a natural or humanistic subject

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that painting as a teacher is a valuable tool for learning the content. because students discover while writing, observe contrasts, list ideas, and illustrate process information, giving students the opportunity to restructure the thinking process.

Sabina.L., Italy              It is certainly very important that pupils get used to always writing down everything they think, understand or want to understand. they must also be able to go back to compare what they thought before and what they think now, after the inquiry activities

Writing helps students to improve their language, but also to reflect on the results of a scientific exploration, putting ideas in order, starting from the observation of what happens to arrive at the analysis of the results.

In my opinion, learning happens during the writing. It is like driving a car and the more you drive thr more you specialise.

Writing is heplful for understanding and for sharing ideas with others.

I think that this type of writing gives students the opportunity to have a "helicopter" wiev on the theme they have just learned and to make connections to other themes (even from different subjects).
I use writing on mathematics lessons to help students overcome fear to math and show them how mathematics is important even in those part of they life taht they don'y realized so far.

Through written text, many thought processes are initiated, for example, memory and evaluation of data, conclusion based on data from the text, evaluation and use of data
in new situations.
After analyzing the text, it is planned to create a similar text (speech or written text). Yes
that part of the work would be successful, it should be prepared
a thought form by which a voice or written text will be formed. Thought form contains the topic (title) of the text, key terms
in relation to the topic, as well as important data relating to key concepts.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing to learn activities enhance students' understanding because when they are writing article they need to think about audiences' understanding that topic. That enhance students' understanding of the topic.

Writing helps students to sequence ideas and process information by identifing connections. It may also make the students perceive some gaps and with this the need of deepening of knowledge.

# data[].attributes.body
With writing the students can have an opurtunity to realize their process of learning esily.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing helps students organize their learning. In order to write, students have to think about the content. When given a good writing prompt, students have to identify connections within the content topic and connections to other ideas. Putting things in their own words helps in developing their own deeper understanding of content rather than just trying to memorize and repeat the words of the teacher or textbook author. It also meets a need of students who simply don't like to speak out in class and provides opportunities for the teacher to have insight into their thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing activities generate success and efficiency in learning activities because it helps to fix information, record results, analyze and generate new ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, I think that with writing to learn activities students acquire long term knowledge, but besides I like to include in these activities the option to make some draws and headlines to focus on the main ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing to learn should help students to consolidate and conceptualise their ideas. I can see how it might help them focus their learning on what they know and what what they need to find out. Writing to learn should help them see the bigger picture.

More or less is the same answer for this question. I think that helps a lot in retaining content and it helps to form a better opinion.

# data[].attributes.body
It becomes more memorable for students with good visual attitudes.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing can be a valuable tool for learning content because while writing students explore ideas, discover relationships, observe contrasts, sequence ideas, and process information, with writing the students reconstruct the thinking process; they internalize the activity and meaningful learning occurs.

The students develop the critical thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
My opinion is writing to Learn Activities helps students to develop their critical thinking, to work in pairs, to solve problems connected to their reality, to learn by doing, to communicate and exchange of good practices.

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes it eases to make connections, but in other cases it could make students delay learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing improves the quality of learning, develops argumentation and critical thinking skills. Learning becomes more active than listening to or writing down, or taking slideshows on the phone. A deeper understanding, more synapses in the brain, higher scientific literacy.

# data[].attributes.body
When writing is used in a class learning outcomes are not only related with the topic they are learning , but they are focusing on an important skill that involve all the disciplines

Students implement knowledge, learn better

Students are active during a writing, not just taking notes or a dictation, language become central part of the learning process

# data[].attributes.body
They improve comprehension of subjects as weel as other 21st century skills, namely communication skills.They also can give meaning to learning, as showed in the video.

# data[].attributes.body
Similar to last answer. They usually have to write in their exams so it is good for exam practice. Information is normally relicated in exams the same way as it has been learned.

# data[].attributes.body
Same answer as before! Writing contributes to "order" the students' brain and to make them aware of what they already know and what they don't know yet.

Writing is becoming more boring for students anymore. They don’t want to write and it makes harder to express themselves when they have to write something. I like to make them observe and write or draw what is happening in lesson process by using worksheets. So with writing I can see what they learn and what they didn’t.  When I think my learning process, I tend to write summaries or make tables to understand concepts. It is a step to discover “how I learn best way” part of our learning trip.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing is a slower process than speaking, so when we as teachers/learners produce written information, it tends to be more condensed (in content) but also more reflected upon, which means, up to a certain extent, it is more elaborate and somehow, leaving a deeper imprint in our brains, which in the end, could be summarized as a meaningful learning.
If we are then, capable of providing a variety of tasks - not only note taking to revisit ideas- that allow the students to adapt to different registers and audiences, we are helping them enrich their vocabulary and their communication strategies, improving the outcome of the learning sequence.

# data[].attributes.body
We express ourselves through language.
Speaking or writing about a subject is complex cognitive exercise. In doing so we are deepening our knowledge on this subject, so these two types of activity used as learning strategies improve student outcomes.
From a small age, already of school age, I associate the quality of the thought with the number of words that each individual dominates, thus, if we know a diversified range of words we improve the quality of our thought and consequently, the quality of the way we communicate with the others .
We all know that in class, students write in a mechanical way when they take notes or when they transcribe the information contained in the picture.
It is necessary to introduce meaningful learning activities, such as small text writing activities, as suggested in the videos.

While student is writing he autonomously builds up his own knowledge in a conscious manner, maybe proud of that and this is also a great goal for his self esteem and so for his success.

It will make student more focused on research for example - they will try to explain it better, be clear and easy to understand. They will improve their vocabulary, creativity, ideas and critical thinking. It forces them to be occupied with the subject they are learning or project they are trying to finish.

Previously, I have explained that when someone writes  a set of skills come together and get into practice.
Copy literally a text without understanding what is written is to waste time.
A synthesis text integrates different information sources. The sources can complement, but also contradict each other. Synthesizing is to  arrange selected information in a logical way and formulating a new text, which is the way to learn.

Writing is very important for the stuident. Constantly writing helps to discover connections which develop critical thinking , which can be applied to an overall view of a problem and can help students develope more creative ideas. Students develop their written lanquage, creativity and they can enrich their vocabulary.

As I mentioned in the previous section, I think that to write it is necessary to coordinate different functions of the brain. In addition, writing promotes analysis and understanding of ideas.
On the other hand, I believe that the writing is very different if it is intended for oneself (for example, personal notes), or if it is destined to be read by other people.

Writing encourages a specific style of personal development, encouraging profound thinking. Constantly writing helps to approach more effective ideas, also generating self-knowledge and quick learning. With the unprecedented development of mass media, writing will remain one of the tools indispensable for intellectual activity and with a special value in the activity of interpersonal communication. Writing is an instrument of intellectual work, and for psychologists a basic element in knowing individuals in finding their character traits. The student must understand that any person may be disregarded before being known, because the correctness of writing is a quality of cult man.
Calligraphy is an evolving art, it is one of the few arts that has remained alive, because people have always sought ways of expressing themselves in writing aesthetically. It is first and foremost a nice way to express yourself. So, how in which they will write the pupils will be a mirror of our work of dascal, a proof that we have formed young, well-trained, determined, with the sense of duty, actually young people with positive attitudes towards work, art.
