A while ago, folks on this list referred me to the journal,
_Assessing Writing_ and especially to articles in the (I think)
first and second issue by Stephen Witte et al., which I also
recommend...
I have saved messages (from May) recommending & describing
this and other lit. on good language arts assessment practices
by Philip White, Richard Beach, and Edward White, which I could
forward to you.
You probably already know the cites for Linda Flowers' recent
work at Carnegie Mellon, linking University and community
resources in important ways for all parties. If not, say so.
