\n\"About
\n<\/div>\n
\nThrough a grant from the Spencer Foundation<\/a>, the National Writing Project and its partners have worked to develop the Civically Engaged Writing Analysis Continuum (CEWAC). This writing rubric and supporting materials are designed to assess youth’s ability to engage in public arguments, rooted in evidence and reasoning, enter productive civic conversations, and take action both in and out of school. This project was part of Spencer\u2019s Civic Measures initiative that engaged researchers in creating measures focused on \u201cthe quality of youth civic and political engagement and the factors that might impact it.\u201d\u00a0Learn More About CEWAC\u2019s Origins \u203a<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation<\/a> provided additional support for engaging its Deeper Learning<\/a> initiative in the pilot process and for dissemination.<\/p>\n
