Teachers who are familiar with, (teaching writing as a process), writing workshops best use "Thinking And Writing". Viewers will make the best use of this series in an in service workshop that allows for "Pre viewing" activities and "post viewing" activities. They can also be used by a small group of teachers and administrators who are bent on improving the teaching of writing in the content areas. Teachers who are searching for information on what other teachers are doing should use writing as a tool for learning in the various subject areas. In short, this series demonstrates 'how to immerse the students in writing if it, is to be useful to them. The students need demonstrations of ways writing can be useful in purposeful pursuits. They must be encouraged in writing activities through their own commitment. They should know what the teachers expect them to be able to write and use writing to team. The students must take the responsibility for their own learning.
