Language Arts Basics: Advocacy vs Research.
Hasselriis, Peter; Watson, Dorothy J.
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v6 n3 p278-86 Jul 1981
The authors contrast the views of those who advocate a back-to-basics approach to language arts education with research findings on language arts basics. The authors are critical of the former, product centered approach which stresses conformity. Research supports an approach which is student centered. (Author/RD)
