Reading Materials for Post-Literacy: The Development and Testing of a Model of Social Writing.

Bhola, Harbans S.

International Review of Education, v35 n4 p463-78 1989

Describes a model of social writing, for use in writing socially relevant, easy-to-read books for new adult readers, which incorporates expressive, cognitive, and social aspects. Elaborates the process from topic selection through manuscript printing, compares the model to other types, and touches upon its transfer to other settings and other types of educational materials.
