Theorizes
that three features of electronic texts have changed writing and
writing instruction: the creation of a seamless flow of text, word
publishing as a rhetorical act, and hypertextual writing and thinking.
Discusses implications for how teachers read, respond to, and evaluate
student writing. Stresses importance of linking writing assessment
to these changes in writing processes, products, and teaching. (RS)
