Writing is basic for academic success. Accurate writing is
Necessary at every level in education, varying of course
Depending on the student`s level. Direct and Indirect
Writing measure different things. Direct measures writing
ability, organization of ideas, vocabulary and grammatical
usage. Whereas Indirect measures features like : spelling,
punctuation and sentence construction.
Grading of writing involves four elements:
Rubric are the instructions.
Prompt is the task to carry out.
Expected response What education wants from students.
Post -task evaluation checking outcome of task.
The Rubric is the first and most important element in
assessing, it points out the instructions for carrying out the
task. Then on the other hand we have the issue of
Technology which affects writing . We cannot fail to mention
The computer withal it`s tools such as : grammar checkers,
On line dictionaries and spellers .Tools like these make
writing easier and faster. Some aspects that can be
pointed out are the restriction of topics at times because
students need to be guided in writing topics that force
them to think. On the other hand free topics are a must in
order to promote creativity. Teachers must check guided
writing but, free writing can be also checked by peers.
