The Writing Process Test (WPT) - developed by Robin Warden and Thomas Hutchinson available through Pro-Ed.
A norm referenced assessment designed to assess the quality of students' written products, the process they use to create those products as well as their own perceptions and misperceptions about the strategic processes related to effective writing. The WPT assesses the process and product from two points of view - the writer's and the evaluators. A product rubric is used with the following criteria: Development includes purpose, audience, vocab, style/tone, support, organization/coherence and Fluency aspects - sentence structure/variety, grammar, capitalization/punctuation and spelling. WPT can be given to a whole class or individually - normed for grades 2 - 12 - and takes about 45 minutes total.
