It sought to determine if any progress had been made through the course of a semester in students’ writing, specifically in the areas of summarizing, paraphrasing and quoting. To evaluate this, a pre-test was given at the beginning of the fall, 2011 semester and a post-test was given at the end. Both tests were the same, and students were asked to write an essay in response to five written excerpts. Fifty-eight students participated in both tests. These tests were rated by trained raters and a statistical measurement of the results showed a measurable improvement in the area of summarizing, paraphrasing and quoting. 2012-07-09 English text University of Toledo / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1332962137 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=toledo1332962137 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
