Although research suggests that teachers turn to their state departments of education for curricular resources, little is known about the resources teachers find on state websites and the recommendations these resources make, especially for teaching writing. We analyze state-provided resources focused on writing (n = 123) for their type, standard(s), and sponsor(s). We also analyze a subset of 40 resources to describe the epistemologies about writing instruction reflected in these resources. We find that just over half of states provide writing resources, that literacy and policy organizations are named about the same number of times as resource sponsors, and that resources tend to foreground structural and ideational epistemologies over social practice. This work helps identify the extent to which states focus on writing instruction, the types of resources states are providing, and the visions of writing instruction communicated through state-provided curricular resources.

政策实践：理解状态写作资源

尽管研究表明教师会向所在州的教育部门寻求课程资源，但对教师在州网站上找到的资源以及这些资源提出的建议，尤其是在教学写作方面的建议知之甚少。我们分析了国家提供的专注于写作（n = 123）的资源的类型、标准和赞助商。我们还分析了 40 个资源的子集，以描述这些资源中反映的关于写作教学的认识论。我们发现超过一半的州提供写作资源，扫盲和政策组织被命名的次数与资源赞助者相同，并且资源倾向于将结构和观念认识论置于社会实践之上。这项工作有助于确定各州在多大程度上关注写作指导，
