Writing Across the Curriculum.
Wason-Ellam, Linda
Canadian Journal of English Language Arts, v11 n3 p5-23 Fall 1987
Presents a study in which first grade students wrote about what they had learned or discovered at their math learning center. Suggests that students who learn actively by writing in a journal acquire ownership of the information, and that reflecting on information is more effective than transcribing and reciting. (JC)
