Workshop H: Evolving Technologies in Writing Assessments - RM 120

Michael Neal, Florida State University

In this workshop we will look at a number of technologies that intersect with writing assessment such as ePortfolio software, course management tools, response/comment features, holistic scoring, multi-media composing software, and machine scored student writing. Specifically, we will examine common promises, practices, and socio-educational implications for students, programs, and the teaching of writing.
