Draft:Builder
Struggling writers spend less time strategically planning and organising their ideas than proficient writers. We collaborated with researchers at the Education Development Centre (EDC) and developed a solution to improve student skills for purposeful and coherent writing. Draft:Builder helps your students develop a strategic approach to planning, organising and draft-writing. Draft:Builder's structured framework breaks the writing process into small, manageable chunks so that students stay on task and build effective writing habits. These proven habits improve performance on any writing task.

Improve Writing Outcomes
• Guide the writing process in three manageable steps that build student confidence
• Develop deliberate, systematic and strategic writing habits for improving writing quality
• Extend and reinforce effective classroom instruction through practice

Enhance Idea Generation and Organisation
• Present information in multiple representations to match how each student best generates ideas
• Transition ideas from brainstorming into a coherent and thoughtful draft through a proven structure

Support any Writing Genre and any Subject
• Draft:Builder includes a number of ready-to-go templates that structure student planning, organisation and writing across all genres
• Modify existing templates such as compare-and-contrast or create your own to match your curriculum subject

How To Implement Into Your Classroom
Draft:Builder reinforces your writing instruction. Help students practice effective habits to successfully write across all genres and subjects.

• Teach the writing process using Draft:Builder's proven effective structure
• Students self-select and use Draft:Builder on any classroom computer or printed Draft:Builder Outline Templates, depending on the level of support needed
