Abstract
This GWRP will evaluate the effectiveness of the manualised Englicious approach to teaching grammar with the aim of improving pupils’ writing. Englicious is an innovative web-based approach to grammar teaching. It has not yet been subject to an experimental trial of its effectiveness. We propose a randomised controlled efficacy trial as the most robust and appropriate method to test the effectiveness of this teaching intervention. The aims of the project are, a) to contribute to the knowledge base in relation to the ways in which the teaching of grammar affects pupils’ writing; b) to support teachers in relation to the teaching of writing required by the National Curriculum in England, and c) to bring new evidence to the attention of policy makers who are responsible for the teaching of English, and specifically grammar, in the National Curriculum. The overarching mixed methods research design includes both quantitative and qualitative work with complementary aims.
