FEATURED PROGRAM FOR SCHOOLS
The 12-Paper Plunge is an approach to teaching writing at the high school level that takes the emphasis off composition course content and classroom instruction and places it instead on a method of assigning and grading papers in the humanities. It works because it enables teachers to set clear, consistent expectations, and allows students to receive the practice and reinforcement they need.
