What is the research evidence on writing? This PDF has some great information about what does effective writing look like, the gender gap in writing and attitude towards writing.

So now my experiment is can we use those best practices using a blog instead of paper and pencil? 2015-2016 will be a year of anecdotal notes and gathering evidence to show that young students can learn to write through blogging.
