N2 - Many students have limited exposure to genres of writing. However, they are expected to craft persuasive papers, biographies, procedural pieces, business letters, narratives, poetry, and several other types of writing. As each written genre contains unique purposes and features, developing genre knowledge is one of the major challenges in learning to write (Coker, 2007). We have found that development and use of a genre chart that lists purposes, formats, characteristics, and audiences for written formats provides students with a tool that helps them plan knowledgeably and independently.
