In this article, writing is reconceptualized as primarily a metacognitive process that can be modeled using contemporary metacognitive theory. This reconceptualization of writing was described in an earlier publication, but in the current article the author provides an update on this metacognitive model of writing with 3 purposes in mind. First, the model is elaborated by using a broad range of literature from metalinguistics and children’s writing development that includes a strong focus on the nature of written language. Second, a developmental perspective on the model is provided. Third, future research stemming from this model of writing is discussed, with an emphasis on children’s use of writing as a way to instruct reading and on the use of metalinguistics and metapragmatics to develop writing skills.

元认知写作模式：发展视角的更新

在本文中，写作被重新概念化为主要可以使用当代元认知理论进行建模的元认知过程。在较早的出版物中已经描述了这种写作的概念化，但是在当前的文章中，作者提供了关于这种写作的元认知模型的更新，同时牢记了三个目的。首先，该模型是通过使用来自元语言学和儿童写作发展的广泛文献进行阐述的，其中包括对书面语言性质的强烈关注。其次，提供了该模型的发展观点。第三，讨论了基于这种写作模式的未来研究，重点是儿童使用写作作为指导阅读的方式，并强调使用元语言学和元语用学发展写作技能。
