What is Process Writing?

Process Writing is an approach to teaching writing that allows the teacher and the students to go through the process of producing a text together. In process writing, students have the chance to think about what they are going to write, produce drafts, revise, edit, and give and receive feedback on their work before coming up with the final version of the text. A process approach to writing contrasts with a product approach, where the main idea is to reproduce a model text.

Pre-writing

In this stage, learners are asked to come up with ideas and plan what they are going to write. This stage might include:

– Brainstorming ideas;

– Planning;

– Organising;

– Selecting ideas.

Learners can – and should – work collaboratively during this stage. They can use techniques such as creating lists, mind maps and charts in order to brainstorm and select the ideas they’d like to include in their texts. This can be done in or outside the classroom – using ed tech tools such as Padlet and Edmodo might enable the teacher to set collaborative work while students are at home.
