https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb What have you learned in past classes about writing to learn? en-us 2016-11-11 19:16:58 UTC 2017-11-18 21:22:49 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/137590313 I don't recall directly covering this in any other class. My best educated guess would be that writing to learn is a strategy used to make sure students know what they are learning and can articulate their thoughts about their learning. ]]> 2016-11-15 01:08:51 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/137590313 dear_rachael_ann https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/137966782 I also don't remember learning about writing to learn in other classes. To me, it sounds like a strategy to get students writing, making educated guesses about subjects, and writing to gain experience in writing and articulating thought. ]]> 2016-11-16 04:01:51 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/137966782 https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138165304 In the past, I have never heard of writing to learn. I do not know what it is, but it makes me think of a way to pre-assess students to see what they already know about a topic and what they are interested in learning. I am interested in learning more about it and how it can be used!]]> 2016-11-16 17:10:13 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138165304 hallorankd https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138268747 I have heard of reading to learn but never writing to learn. It sounds like it might be like a KWL chart? For example, a student will write all he knows about the moon before the class learns about the moon, maybe?]]> 2016-11-16 22:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138268747 bailee_mvnu https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138293450 The first thing I have ever really heard about writing to learn would be recently in my ISP field. I asked what they were talking about when they told the students to do "write to learn". For them, it is a program (I think online) that helps students will grammar and also helps them know if their writing is "strong" or "weak" on a scale of 0 - maybe 5. I am not sure if it goes to 5 but I was watching a little boy and his was 2 because he only had a paragraph. I am not sure what else there is to do about it, I just picked up on small little things. I would like to know the scale and how the program knows the scale. For example, if it is made by the teacher or the program or if it can be personalized for each student. I would like to know more. As far as learning about "writing to learn" in past classes, I can't really remember learning it any other time but if we had, it probably would have been in one of Prof. White's classes. ]]> 2016-11-17 02:08:39 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138293450 krebsmn https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138393997 I don't remember learning about writing to learn in any other classes. I think this would be a strategy used to get students to write for a purpose. Often times students write stories that don't have any significance or substance to them. Maybe writing to learn is a way to help students with that. ]]> 2016-11-17 13:57:20 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138393997 https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138430704 Like everyone else, writing to learn sounds unfamiliar to me. I would guess its writing as you read, like taking notes, or asking questions as you read. It reminds me of one of my college literature classes in which my professor MADE us write comments in our novels. At first it was frustrating, but after a while it was like I was conversing with the author and it helped me not only pay more attention but it also made me think more deeply. ]]> 2016-11-17 15:13:48 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138430704 zebulonjfrank https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138590771 I do not recall learning about writing to learn. I would guess that this means that students have a purpose to their writing besides purely just writing. Students could write about certain units that they are covering in different subjects. I am not really sure.

For some reason it's not letting me edit the square...) I do not remember learning much about writing to learn, if anything. A few things that come to mind is to have students write things they want to know. I have also heard of students writing all that they know about a subject. That's about it!]]> 2016-11-18 14:36:53 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138706429 fergusonnkelli https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138894298 Never have I directly been taught about writing to learn. However, I feel like that is what we do all the time. Whenever we write essays or research papers, we are writing to learn more information or to demonstrate our learning. Writing is how I have learned best since I can remember. I have to write something or at least see it in writing so that I understand it. ]]> 2016-11-19 19:45:12 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138894298 kabaker21 https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138900790 I don't remember learning about writing to learn. I know we have learned that it is important for students to write the important things they learn while reading. They should write down details but they shouldn't just copy all of what they read. Then they would be writing to learn k]]> 2016-11-19 22:34:18 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138900790 crengert21 https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138904279 I honestly don't remember learning anything about writing to learn. When I think about writing to learn, I think of answering questions from the questions from the back of the book or answering questions your teacher has asked you. It could also mean students writing things they they just learned in their writing journal or things they found of interest. ]]> 2016-11-20 01:11:01 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138904279 https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138964350 I do not recall learning about writing to learn. I assume that this is often used as a form of an exit slip where students will write down their thoughts and ideas, as well as what they have learned during that particular day. I think by doing this students may be able to have a better understanding of what they actually learned and this may also help them remember the material better. ]]> 2016-11-20 21:14:54 UTC https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138964350 https://padlet.com/enapier/2kkzndn6fqkb/wish/138965484 When I first read the question about what I know about writing to learn I sat for a little while to think if I had ever hear of it. It sounded familiar but I don't think I know what it is. It sounds like you are having children write what they know, what they feel, and what they see and then when you have them put their thoughts on paper, they are able to work out what they are feeling and thinking. It is a form of getting children to critically think.
