Today , I would like to know about something that important to be a better writer. I
search in on the internet and find it which is The Dialogue Journal: A Tool for
Building Better Writers. I spend time for a long time to read this academic
because it is long contents. I can summarize it which are taking written
conversations into the language class, who is the audience—the teacher, another
adult, or a peer?, freedom to become fluent, building teacher-student
relationships, empowering learners through dialogue journals, dislodging
writer’s block with dialogue journals, responding to dialogue journals, Using
dialogue journals to focus on structure, making the connection to academic
writing, how to begin using dialogue
journals in your English language class, responding to students’ dialogue
journals , using dialogue journals with young learners.
Taking written
conversations into the language class; dialogue journals are employed in
English-language classes where the students need to understand the concept of
communicating in writing and develop their writing skills.
who is the audience—the
teacher, another adult, or a peer?; The notion of audience is an important
concept in written work as it dictates the style and tone and is the foundation
of appropriate academic writing.
Freedom to become
fluent; The goal of the dialogue journal first and
foremost is to encourage fluency before accuracy.
Building
teacher-student relationships; Dialogue journals are not only a way to improve
student writing, but also a means for teachers to get to know their students
and their learning processes, which helps teachers to better serve their
learners’ needs.
Empowering learners
through dialogue journals; Dialogue journals are a way of bringing students’ outside
lives into the classroom, providing meaningful and rich material with which to
work and consequently acting as a natural motivator.
Dislodging writer’s
block with dialogue journals; Non-native speakers (and many native speakers)
come to grief in writing because they employ their internal editor, or monitor,
as termed it in his Monitor Hypothesis, too early in the writing process.
Responding to dialogue
journals; Instead of judging form as in other student written work, teachers
respond to the content or message in their students’ dialogue journals.
How to begin using
dialogue journals in your English language class; Choose what kind of notebook
or binder you want your students to use for their dialogue journals. Decide
where the journals will be kept, taking into account the need for confidentiality.
Plan a writing routine ahead of time. Choose how often you will respond to
students’ entries. Consider whether you want the journal entries to follow a
particular format. Strategize how you will help your students understand that
dialogue journals, although ungraded, are an important part of their course.
Carefully plan how you will introduce dialogue journals to your class.
In my opinion, it’ s
very important to teach students to learn about writing. The first things to do
about writing, teacher must have knowledge about it to teach students and have
strategies to teach such as bring material such as journal that is interesting
to teach Ss. I think, writing teaching is very difficult but teacher know process
of writing and have many strategies to teach, teacher will teach easier.
