Abstract
The study examines the writing of college freshmen on expository, argumentative, and speculative tasks by means of the Crediton cognitive model in order to describe how and why they evoke the range of responses they do, and why particular cognitive strategies are drawn on. It concludes that it is possible to design a series of tasks with the ability to initiate growth rather than to merely record responses.Keywords
