Inspiring Creative Writing through Conversation.
Houpt, Sheri
Foreign Language Annals, v17 n3 p185-89 May 1984
The use of foreign language classroom conversation as a prewriting exercise, to help students discover composition topics, discuss the pros and cons, shape the narrative or thesis, and gather detail in a coherent way, launches the composition process and makes the homework of writing and proofreading more interesting and initially less difficult.
