Training Secondary School Teachers of Writing.
Rubin, Donald L.; Kirby, Daniel R.
Journal of Teacher Education, v33 n5 p41-46 Sep-Oct 1982

Teachers must themselves become writers, and concentrate on encouraging fluency rather than grammatical correctness. Strategies for training teachers are suggested, and those used in the National Writing Project are described. (PP)
