The articles in this journal focus on the teaching of composition at the secondary and college levels. Separate articles deal with the causes of poor proofreading by students and methods for teaching proofreading skills; the use of folklore as an aid to teaching composition; techniques for overcoming students' fear of failure in the writing classroom; teaching techniques developed for a workshop course in creative writing; the use of student-interest stations in the teaching of expository writing; a program in which students explore elements of visual art and then describe their visual experiences in writing; and a review of research on the effect of feedback on student writing.
