CONTRIBUTE TO NWP RESEARCH ARCHIVES -- NWP's Research and Evaluation Unit maintains a searchable archive of empirical research conducted on writing project activities in writing project settings. Currently there are over 250 pieces of research in the archive, which is available to site leaders, TCs, and others to assist with strategic planning, resource development, and program planning, as well as local research. We hope to add any research you may be aware of, including articles, dissertations, book chapters, research reports, and the like. Please contact Paul LeMahieu at plem@nwp.org about potential additions to the NWP Research Archive.
