This document discusses Self-Regulated Strategy Development (SRSD), an instructional approach for teaching writing. SRSD follows a 6-stage model where students are explicitly taught writing strategies and how to self-regulate the writing process. In the initial stages, instruction is supportive as students learn strategies, set goals, and practice collaboratively. Later stages focus on independent writing as support is faded. The approach aims to help students learn, use, and adopt the strategies of skilled writers across all grade levels and content areas.
