Resumen
For many students in basic writing classrooms the language of writing assignments, essay prompts and required reading is especially difficult. Therefore, some teachers are using approaches other than logical or linguistic methods to assist these students. This thesis details some of the methods teachers and researchers are using. Most significant is a case study that explores the use of visuals in a basic writing classroom. The results of the case study and a survey instrument suggest that there is a niche for alternative methods and the use of visuals in the basic writing classroom.

Resumen

Ph.D.
This study examines the literacies taught and valued by three major stakeholder groups within an innovative welfare-to-work/adult basic education (ABE) program in the northeastern United States. The program, which I call Women for Change, is examined from the perspective of the program participants (a group of eight women on TANF who are mandated to attend), program staff (four social workers affiliated with a local university and one veteran adult basic educator), and the organization that provides funding for the program. Using data collected from one-on-one interviews, participant observation, and primary documentation used within the program, this case study reveals substantive conflict in the primary literacy-learning goals held by each of the stakeholder groups: The program funders want participants to find paid work; participants desire to complete their GED certification and hope to meet additional interpersonal goals, such as learning to communicate more effectively; and program staff want to help participants develop self-esteem and meet other emotional goals. These disparate goals—and each stakeholder group’s dedication to its particular objectives—create conflict within the class sessions, producing a program that wasn't as efficient at meeting any particular goal. Based on these data, the present study makes three overarching arguments. First, literacy-learning programs—particularly those that work with adults—should solicit and aim to incorporate at least some of the goals and learning objectives sought and valued bylearners. Second, adult literacy educators, especially those who work with ABE and college-level writing students, must be prepared to help writers cope with the emotional components of the literacy learning process, particularly by connecting them with counseling professionals when appropriate. Finally, the connection between writing/literacy learning and emotion suggests that a more capacious understanding of literacy is necessary. James Paul Gee’s notion of Discourse helps us begin to theorize this broader understanding, but ultimately I argue that we must go farther than Discourse to develop an “integrative literacies” model that more robustly accounts for the relationship between literacy, identity, and histories of trauma.

Resumen
The purpose of this study was to discover what defines a writing center by interviewing directors of writing centers in the Southern Appalachian area. This qualitative study was based on a single round of recorded telephone interviews with 13 writing center directors who meet the criteria for inclusion in the study. Many researchers have written about writing centers, their efficacy, and what defines them; yet, no clear consensus exists. Without a clear definition there is no means of determining the efficacy of writing centers. As a result of the interviews with the writing center directors three critical components of writing centers emerged. They were tutors, space, and leadership; these are the three major elements that define and shape a writing center. A writing center must have well-trained and knowledgeable tutors; a space, either physical, virtual or both, as a base of operation; and a director that provides leadership.

Resumen
Until 2014, admission requirements for the educator preparation program at a university in the north central United States included a minimum competency level on the Praxis I basic skills writing test and completion of one general education writing course. However, evidence from the university's ETS reports showed that less than 60% of students as first-time test-takers met the required score. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the required writing course in assisting students to meet the Praxis I writing competencies. In 2014, the ETS Core Academic Skills for Educators test replaced the Praxis I. Because only 3 years of accumulated data on 88 examinees were available for the new test, the Praxis I writing test was used for this study. The learning theories of Albert Bandura, Jerome Bruner, John Dewey, and Lev Vygotsky guided the study. Utilization-focused program evaluation was used to investigate the problem. Data collected in this study were 5 faculty interviews, 2 student focus groups, and archival institutional data and national student engagement survey data. Data analysis was completed using curricular mapping and Atlas.ti 7 software. Findings indicated that the general education writing course did not provide students with the skills needed to meet minimum competency on Praxis I writing test. The study project, a curriculum plan for an education course, was developed to address test preparation and students' writing competency. The positive social change implications of this project are to increase the number of successful first-time test-takers on the writing test and to initiate collaborative discussions that would drive partnerships regarding the development of smooth transitions of writing expectations across K-16 institutions.

Resumen
The purpose of this study was to investigate the discourses that author basic writing in Texas and question how instructors of basic writing at a community college are constructed as well as constructive through discursive practices. Elements of Critical Discourse Analysis (Luke, 1995-1996; Faircloth, 2000) were employed to analyze primary source documents, publications, presentations, meeting minutes, public forum transcripts, professional literature and policies pertaining to the practice of developmental English since the adoption of the Texas Academic Skills Program and the Texas Success Initiative. The discourses of failure, economy and science were identified as authoritative systems of conventions and norms that operate through the practice of basic writing. A Foucaultian genealogical lens was then applied both to explore the power relations and categorizations processes that undergird the material consequences (Valle, 2005) of the discourses as well as to identify how the narratives of basic writing faculty intersect with the discourses. Findings suggest that the discourses of failure, economy, and science function in a reciprocal manner to promote distorted truth claims about students and basic coursework that effectively limit possibilities for and lend to increased governmental control over the future practice of developmental education. The instructors’ stories, however, provide critical disruptions to the discourses. Viewing their alternative understandings of basic writing alongside the recurrent statements that have constructed popular understandings of developmental English, this study foregrounds the urgent need for more research from practitioners within the field and better channels of communicating their scholarship and professional experiences in the public arena.

As time passes, globalization has affected both society and culture around the world. In response to increasing immigration, the ministry of education in Taiwan has included immigrants' Chinese language learning in Adult Basic Education. Hence, creating classrooms where illiterate Taiwanese elderly people and immigrants from China and Southeast Asia study together. As a result, the classroom of Adult Basic Education becomes multi-cultural, multi-age, and multi-level environment. Therefore, this study is based on Differentiated Instruction. The purpose of this study is to explore the teaching challenges TCSL instructors may face in class and to discover the effective instruction they could adapt to student differences when implementing differentiated TCSL reading and writing instruction in Adult Basic Education. This qualitative research was done in an Adult Basic Education facility based in Kaohsiung and the data were collected from October to December, 2015. The participants of the study were a researcher, who was also the instructor, and 10 students including illiterate Taiwanese elderly people, Chinese immigrants, a Vietnamese migrant worker, and a Japanese learner. To ensure the objectivity of the study, the research included an analysis of teaching and learning process, formal and informal interviews. According to the study, the ways the teacher applied Differentiated Instruction in class were influenced by the students’ age, education background, language learning background, Chinese language ability, and even the languages they use. And only when the teacher understood students’ individual learning differences mentioned above and understood that each difference might result in distinctive influences in students’ learning could the teacher easily adapt the Differentiated Instruction to class. This study concludes: 1) Among a variety of individual learning differences in Adult Basic Education, students’ education background had an influential impact on the efficacy of teaching and learning. 2) The students in Adult Basic Education had significantly different language learning backgrounds. 3) Adult Basic Education teachers could use the main concepts of critical literacy and bilingual and bicultural education to design TCSL reading and writing classes. 4) Differentiated Instruction in Adult Basic Education could be realized by means of giving students Xuan-Ze Quan (the right to choose). 5) Adult Basic Education teachers should be able to analyze the connections between students’ learning evidences and their individual learning differences.

Resumen
Thesis (M. A. (English Studies)) -- University of Limpopo, 2020
This study evaluated the application of the ‘process approach’ to writing in secondary schools in Limpopo Province; The initial plan was to involve two rural and two urban schools. However, the urban schools did not cooperate as initially promised when preparations were made. It is for this reason that the sample was made up of two rural and two peri-urban schools. The study investigated English writing as a basic language skill that second language learners needed to acquire, in a process writing context. Related literature was reviewed to develop knowledge in the area of writing as a process. An exploratory research design was employed and a qualitative approach was followed to mainly collect in-depth data in a Grade 12 English language classroom. The Grade 12 learners and their teachers were interviewed and observed in their writing classrooms. The process that learners followed when engaged in writing an assigned essay was scrutinized in line with what is required by Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) in order to confirm the teachers’ responses and the observations made during writing lessons. Thematic analysis was used for the data emanating from interview responses, an observation checklist and the learners’ essay marking rubric. The study revealed that the method of teaching writing and the learners’ writings resembled the process approach. This implies that teachers and learners implement process writing even though the teachers do so to a varying degree due to overcrowded classrooms and a lack of resources experienced more in rural schools than in the peri-urban ones

Resumen
The major purposes of this study were (1) to construct a reliable and valid scale for measuring writing self-efficacy levels in adult basic education students, (2) to further test the scale's validity and reliability by administering it to a second selected group of adult basic education students, and (3) to demonstrate its utility by showing its use in correlational analyses. In the first of three phases, 156-item statements were initially developed. These statements were evaluated by a Delphi panel and reduced to a 77-item writing self-efficacy scale and administered to 490 adult basic education students from ten community colleges located in Oregon. A systematic procedure of statistical analyses was used that resulted in 25 item-statements meeting criteria for acceptance into the revised writing self-efficacy scale. The revised 25-item scale was administered to a second group of 239 ABE students from six other community colleges in Oregon. The same statistical procedures, as in phase one, resulted in a 25-item writing self-efficacy scale. Factor analyses resulting in a clustering of 21 out of 25 items on two factors argued for some evidence of unidimensionality, but further analyses were recommended. The scale's construct validity was demonstrated by showing a strong divergent correlation with the Daly-Miller Writing Apprehension Scale. Having established evidence of the scale's validity and reliability, the use of the writing self-efficacy scale in conducting correlational analyses was demonstrated. Nine variables were studied, with two variables showing strong relationships with writing self-efficacy, a negative one with writing apprehension and a positive one with writing improvement. It was concluded that the newly revised 25-item writing self-efficacy scale showed preliminary evidence of reliability and validity but it was recommended for further study with other selected groups of adult basic education students. The scale's unidimensionality was also suggested for further study, in order to analyze the underlying factors that make up the construct of writing self-efficacy in adult basic education students. Moreover, the development of this scale offered a first step in assessing the important construct of writing self-efficacy in adult basic education students and provided a useful tool in assessing such a construct.

Resumen
Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy: Public Management, 2017.
Different pedagogies, and writing styles have not only over the years transformed the face of academia, but have played a pivotal role in shaping diverse curricula and contributing to their development. In pursuit of attaining suitable models that have administrative and operational frameworks that address the ever-growing myriad multicultural world we live in today; different models and facilities have been developed to keep up with the development of academic literacies. The overall aim of this research was to investigate a model Writing Centre (WrC) and how its pedagogic, operational and administrative framework contributes to the growth of curricular in an institution of higher education. The study examined the power relations of the tutor and tutee relationship, as explained by the critical discourse analysis and how it adopts the customer contact theory to focus on the intangible assets of the student. The researcher used mixed methods analysis to be able to understand perceptions, views, expectations and experiences by students to explore the different ontologies and epistemologies associated with curriculum development. Finally, the research concluded that a positive contribution to growth for teaching is defined by the pedagogic, operational and administrative framework of a given WrC. It is however, imperative to note that the model can move away from what ought to be but still work, as the phenomenon of a WrC is informed by the institution in which it is birthed. Thus, the findings of this study are not disconfirmed by previous theories and research on similar efforts, but rather add to the already existent knowledge base on writing centres.
