Writing Assessment And The Revolution In Digital Texts And Technologies

Michael Neal contends that new technologies are neither the problem nor the solution, Instead, educators need to tap into digital resources only inasmuch as they promote writing and its assessment as rhetorical with authentic purposes, audiences, and contexts. He provides an innovative framework for formative and holistic assessment of students' digital composition at the college and high school level. Chapters address the recent evolution of writing assessment tools, the growing trend of computer automated scoring, and the immense future potential of technology-assisted assessments. Provides frameworks to help teachers evaluate student-produced multi-media writing. Evaluates a wide range of current assessment technologies. Addresses concerns about the current trend of machine-scored composition. Suggests ways teachers can implement digital technologies to improve student writing as well as engage learners. --Book Jacket.
