Dear Group,
 
Is anyone familiar with research on usage errors and methods for reducing them in students' work? What really works for reducing usage errors? What doesn't work? How should we think of usage errors? Do error reduction efforts work? What do they give us? While I don't want my students to make errors, I'm much more interested in improving their writing than in reducing their errors. 
 
Thanks,
 
Scott Woods
