“We used ideas from Hooked on Meaning with students who had failed the South Carolina writing exam. The next time they took the test they had a 100% pass rate. Following Barry Lane’s lead, we didn’t teach to the test, we taught the young writers craft. Their writing performances soared.” ~ Dr. Janet Files, Coastal Area Writing Project, South Carolina
