Editing User:Riegler/EuroSoTL 2025 Collaborative Writing Group (section)

==Suggested writing==
The ESCWG on Decoding is pretty much open to all sorts of media and outlets (as long as it serves the overall goal of making Decoding work more accessible). A working plan will be drafted at the inaugural online-meeting. It should be open for adjustment.

The group of people who have planned this ESCWG has the following type of writing content in mind:

===Wiki content===

*Pages describing specific bottlenecks, such as e.g. [[Difference between sample and population]]. (For this type of pages a suitable degree of conciseness needs to be agreed on. The thinkable spectrum ranges from super concise as in [[Heat, temperature and internal energy]] to very detailed as in the Bottleneck Section of [[Limits]].) We need pages on the following bottlenecks:
**Graph reading in psychology (work by Cameron et al.)
**Graph reading in physics (see [[Overcoming Student Learning Bottlenecks]], p. 27)
**Bottlenecks described in [[The Decoding the Disciplines Paradigm: Seven Steps to Increased Student Learning]] and [[Overcoming Student Learning Bottlenecks]])
**Concept of mathematical function
*Pages featuring specific work (published or unpublished). Most likely, the best current exemplars of such a page are [[Group activities in interactive teaching]] and [[Limits]].
*Pages explaining Decoding and Disrupting concepts and jargon, e.g. [[Step 3 - Modeling Mental Operations]], [[Emotional Bottleneck]].
It might be helpful if we have examplar pages for all these content categories.

===Journal articles===
It is expected that while working on the wiki "a view of the landscape of Decoding" will emerge. This might lead to the idea of jointly writing a review article. A likely topic might be "reading across the disciplines" as much Decoding work is on reading academic artifacts (text, graphs).

=== Suggestions for getting started writing activities ===
* Describe a bottleneck of your choice or contribute to one of the [[:Category:Bottleneck|exisiting bottleneck description pages]].
* Improve [[Special:AllPages|exisiting pages]]. Candidates in need are 
** [[Step 1 - Identify a Bottleneck to Learning]]
** [[Step 2 - Decoding Interview]]
** [[Step 3 - Modeling Mental Operations]]
** [[Step 4: Give Students Practice and Feedback]]
** [[Step 5 - Motivate and lessen resistance]]
** [[Step 6 - Assess Student Mastery]]
** [[Step 7 - Share What Has Been Learned Through the Decoding Process]]
*Adopt a writing project suggested on [[Pages needed]].
