@makzan I know what they are trying to say - but surely it isn't 'just' writing ...
clearly? thoughtfully? well? analytically?
bad writing does not show anybody's ability to think critically.
Or am I missing something?
@JohnPhilpin before that paragraph, in the book, it says that when students show what they learned by writing, they show how well they learned it, good or bad.
It compares the “read-only” method that students only capture without output process, which students think they learned something but actually not.
@makzan ✅ I get it and the previous paragraph clarity adds context - thank you.
But, to me, it still seems to need a qualifier in there somewhere.
@JohnPhilpin then it would be the teacher in terms of learning session. Or social responses when in public.
