| Western/Pacific Literacy Network | http://literacynet.o | Developed by Professor Chuck Guilford of Boise |
| and the CNN San Francisco bureau | rg/cnnsf/ | State University, Paradigm helps students think |
| about what goes into a writing before they ever |
| start to draft. There are sections on discovering |
| what to write, organizing, revising and editing |
| your writing. Also several types of essays are |
| addressed: thesis/support, argumentative, |
| exploratory, and informal. There is enough |
| content for teachers to send students to Paradigm |
| for online guidance, or teachers might want to |
| use the resource to guide their own classroom |
| instruction. Prof. Guilford has done an excellent |
| job of summarizing much of the research on the |
| process approach to writing. Each module |
| includes the full text of each story and interactive |
| activities to test comprehension. The learner can |
| choose to read the text, listen to the text, and view |
| a short video clip of the story. Each module is |
| designed for ease of use so the learner can use it |
| independently. The instructor can also |
| incorporate any story into class activities and |
| lesson plans. |
