Subject:Researching decline Minimalist instruction for dissertation and need help... From:HELEN CLAIRE COOK <cookh -at- coventry -dot- ac -dot- uk> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Tue, 8 Mar 2005 13:12:36 -0000 (GMT)
Hi!
I am a third year communication authoring and design student currently
researching the topic of minimalist instruction and specifically it?s
decline in popularity in the last decade or so.
I haven?t been able to find very much published more recently than the
late 1990?s and was wondering if anyone can help me by answering a few
short questions...?
1) Has anyone ever used minimalist instruction?
2)Is anyone actually working and writing using the minimalist model theories?
3)If no to using minimalist instruction then why not? what is the
alternative you are using?
4)Do you feel that minimalist instruction would or could be approriate for
the documents you work with?
and finally i would appreciate any comments and /or references in regards
to this subject.
Thank you in advance for your time, and any help you can offer,
Yours Hopefully,
-Helen Cook
