The Future of Writing

Writing remains the critical academic and job skill. Yet only 40% of high school students who took the ACT writing exam in 2016 lacked the reading and writing skills necessary to successfully complete a college-level English composition class, and only 27% of employers believe that recent College graduates are well prepared in their written communications for the workplace. Cutting edge digital tools allow for automated writing instruction that enables teachers to focus on rhetoric and meaning.
