Finding reliable information about teaching writing can be difficult. Here are some sources you may wish to use to locate information that is supported by educational research.

Clicking a link will take you away from this site to the resource's page where you will have access to advanced searching features.

Note that most full-text information sources charge for accessing those texts. If you cannot find full-text documents on the web, I suggest you check WorldCat for a library source near you. Or ask your school or public library if it has subscriptions to any databases that house documents you need. The librarian may have other suggestions you can try as well.
