Abstract:
This study examined the nature of oral and written discourse constructed among middle school students and between students and adults during a 2-year collaborative writing project in which adults helped 3 students describe an alternative reading program they had participated in. Findings indicated that rather than telling students what to do, much of the adult conversation elicited students' ideas, provided guidance, helped them stay on task, and moderated disagreements.
