INTRODUCTION
Writing meets a number of goals, some related to school, others related to life survival skills. In school writing helps students use the information they have learned, for it reinforces skills in reading and other areas of the curriculum (discussion, composition, test-taking). In life, or on the job, these students will need writing skills to perform their jobs: to inform, communicate, and evaluate. Yet for my remedial student, both areas of writing skills seem vastly out of reach. Most do not use writing in the school at all, most do not see themselves ever as candidates for jobs which would require such skills.
