What qualitative instruments exist for analysing children's writing?

Brett Healey @Brett_Healey

02 February 2017 0 6K Report

I am interested in possibly analysing children's use of one or more of:

-Self expression

-General ideation

-Creativity

-Critical thinking skills or problem solving through writing

-Writing process (idea generation process)

Are there any instruments useful for analysing how these "soft" writing concepts manifest in children's writing?
