Published authors find writing just as difficult as students, and spend the most amount of time revising

Revision is not a sign of weakness; it is the writing; it is the thinking.

Writing can never be in general because it must always have a specific purpose, audience, situation, etc

The idea that you can write in general hurts teachers and employees and frustrates writers in unfamiliar writing situations.

Better way to approach writing are

Putting ourselves in different situations and using recurring techniques when appropriate

Realizing everything a writer does is impacted by situation, and as a writer you must continue learning and adapting

Overall we must hold ourselves to reasonable standards

Eliminating the idea of writing in general will better prepare us for other situations

The purpose of reading something is to learn about writing.

Reading like a writer allows for the reader to see what choices the writer made, so that the reader can incorporate what they liked, or not include what they didn’t like, in their own writings.

Forming questions about the piece of writing before reading it can provide for better and more effective reading.

Reading like a writer can help establish what is appropriate and effective in different situations.

High school students often don’t see assignments and thoroughly think them through.

Writing to college students is thinking, meaning that writing can cause thoughts to come into one’s brain.

Writing your thoughts allows for more thoughts to form.

Professors tend to get frustrated about their student’s writing, but they are actually not creating quality assignments that allow students to show their creativity.

Professors often give assignments that don't have a true purpose. Most prompts ask students to simply inform.

Writing development improves when professors allow for feedback.

There’s a problematic separation between reading and writing.

Although we only think of writing as being creative, reading is creative as well.

Teaching reading and writing together helps both skills.

Teachers/instructors have to actually provide students with strategies and skills in reading and writing in order for students to actively engage in the texts and their writing.

# data[].attributes.body
Revision is not an afterthought, rather, it is the basis of writing.

Revision is an essential part of writing, and it is not done because of weak writing.

Writing and revision are social; meaning that revision is done with feedback from others, like having a conversation.

# data[].attributes.body
The rules of writing are based on the audience and purpose of the piece of writing.

There is no single correct way of writing or communicating because people grow up differently and in different cultures. Only one way of writing excludes those other cultures.

Something that one may see as a mistake in writing/communication may simply be a difference in writing/communication.

# data[].attributes.body
The big name authors often misguide writers because they set unreasonable expectations for many writers with their amazing pieces.

One doesn’t need everything that a great author has to be a writer. There is a misconception that to be a great writer, your writing process has to be amazing.

Writing is collaborative, even though it may not seem that way. Great writers use what other people are writing to build off of and form their own, new ideas.

# data[].attributes.body
There is no one way to write an “essay” or “research paper” because everyone’s definition of that specific thing is different.

Context, audience, purpose, etc are all situational.

No one class can teach you how to write.

It is most effective to learn how to write something before you write what you need to write.

Taking away bilingual/multilingual education and literacy learning would overall not be good for writers because there would be no diversity and culture appreciation.

When looking away from an english only nation, we are able to better understand the struggles of immigrants in literacy, and see social justice issues that surround an english only nation.

Those who are literate in multiple languages tend to develop a more complex network of cognitive skills, which shows how important a multi literate country is.

Democratic writing finds advantages in literacy with all languages and cultures.

Historically writing was something that people didn’t necessarily enjoy compared to reading. Reading seemed more fun to people because it seemed more relaxing, while writing was associated with work and school.

Writing then became something that people used to express their interests in things.

With digital technology, people were able to write and communicate with others instantly, which allowed for writers to be everywhere.

Everyone is writing to participate in conversation using computers, and writing has become even more social.

# data[].attributes.body
Writing is an opportunity to think and get creative and not only to reproduce/rephrase what is already known from a reading.

Teachers/Instructors are not responsible for students’ education; they are not there to lead you to success, that is something the student themselves have to do without depending on instructors.

Students/writers cannot expect to know everything they will have to “learn, unlearn, and relearn” not only to enhance their writing but also improve in other subjects too.

# data[].attributes.body
Most assignments undergrads are working on are limited to purpose and informing the reader, showing a more teacher-as-examiner situation and revealing students’ lack of improvement and creativity in writing.

Writing should be thought of as a conversation and a way to improve this is by writing journal entries where students are able to decide their own purpose, audience, and thoughts revealing them to “unstructured writing opportunities in becoming a better writer.”

Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) programs should be implemented more because they help build better writers as the program asks students to reflect on their learning of assignments, to write for wider audiences, and to write more in general.

# data[].attributes.body
Reading Like a Writer is more effective as the reader creates a better understanding of the piece and how it came together as a whole and can then implement such strategies in their own work.

Most college/university professors expect students to RLW even though not explicitly said and even if they don't it is always used for any reading as it becomes an “opportunity to think and learn about writing.”

Before reading “consider the context surrounding both the assignment and the text you are reading.”  Do you know the author's purpose and intended audience?

# data[].attributes.body
Reading and writing are directly related and therefore should be taught together from an early age.

Just because students are exposed to multiple types of writing or have read over different types of readings does not mean they have fully comprehended what the subject is explaining and therefore leads to not-so-effective writing, analyzing, and interpretation skills.

Both reading and writing are creative. Writing is creative in the sense that the writer is “creating meaning by putting words and ideas together.” Whereas in reading the words/ideas are already given and the reader creates meaning by putting it in their own perspective, experiences, and background.

# data[].attributes.body
Revision plays a crucial part in writing as it makes writers stronger and reveals how all writings are always meant to be read and responded to.

Multiple revisions do not make an effective writer.

Revision focuses on purpose, evidence, and organization therefore is not related to editing which focuses on grammatical, spelling, and style corrections.

Effective revising is making smarter changes and with time and repetition of revising writers will “have this awareness even if they aren’t aware of it.”

# data[].attributes.body
There is no correct way to speak or write as everyone faces their own linguistic differences in each language therefore recognizing this could help decrease the difficulties/inequality some face.

By saying there is a correct & incorrect way of speaking/writing we devalue the intelligence and character of students and people in general.

Code-switching, although still revolved around the idea of correctness should be valued more in communication situations.

Anyone can be a writer through collaborations, imitations, observations, experiences, storytelling, socials, etc. basically not being isolated.

Because there are so many great writing pieces in the world students often believe they have to live up to such expectations making writing seem difficult and the myth that only geniuses can write more believable.

Being able to effectively reuse, recycle, and repurpose existing materials for new uses.

Writing is not general since it’s always written for a specific purpose, audience, or context; consists of past learning experiences (school, work, etc.)

It’s normal to struggle in a new writing class or writing for a new job etc. that’s why it’s important to be able to look at examples, know the specifics, your audience, and give yourself time to research/process the new writing situation.

One has to be willing to accept the struggle and frustration that comes with new writing situations as it is normal and will become easier with practice

Recognize that writers always have more to learn and that failing/struggling is all a part of the process

# data[].attributes.body
Being bilingual or plurilingual should be looked at as a gift instead of a burden or limitation to one’s ability.

Many people face problems of English-only learning and assimilation resulting in a loss of their own culture and language that should have instead been encouraged.

There is no such thing as limitations, language gaps, or playing catch up since everyone faces their own linguistic differences it should be looked upon as one potential.

Being plurilingual is actually more beneficial than those who are monolingual as a writer can communicate across cultures and languages.

One main difference between writing in the 21st-century and the past is the multiple digital platforms we have now to publish or write just about anything compared to the physical labor of ‘writing’ in the past.

Be aware of the new models of composing that have developed over time with the help of digital platforms; how they are not a part of testing; how the role of writing for the public should be of more importance.

How writing should be taught in a different light for those in K- graduate school, it should be taught through research, theories of composing, and the other neglected info about the composition from the past.

New models of teaching that allow students to both collaborate and be social with their peers but also have students be able to understand different amounts of info and be able to know which resources are more credible and effective when looking for help.

Students can incorporate other writer’s styles into their own text by getting influenced by reading

Some quotes or writing styles won’t be effective for persuading certain groups of readers

Asking questions about the text and getting context before reading is important to understand what the author is trying to prove.

Revision is a necessary step in writing which all writers take

Revision is not just fixing grammatical errors but fixing purpose, evidence, and organization. Don’t just revise for the sake of change!

Revising is the bulk of the writing

Revising involves interaction with the text and other people who read and give feedback on your work.

Current Traditional Rhetoric is the formulaic way to teach writing or speaking in order for it to be correct

Even though minorities are getting more opportunities in education, literacy is still oppressing them since it does not benefit them financially in the future

Minorities getting taught white middle-class English are forgetting their roots and forgetting their minority language
