Abstract: This article presents the Writing Submission Form (WSF), a resource instructors can use in their classrooms as a catalyst for student writing improvements. The resulting improvements are practical, connect to writing clarity, and relate to writing as an essential soft skill. As a tool, the WSF is a behavioral learning solution with applications for both teaching and learning. As a teaching tool, it is the enabling mechanism for writing improvements inspired by instructor feedback. As a learning tool, it results in learners displaying new and improved writing skills and behaviors. This article provides an overview of the WSF, discusses its theoretical underpinnings, explains how it is used, describes how it is introduced and debriefed with learners, and provides detailed suggestions how to do so. The article also includes the WSFs benefits and potential downsides.
