Intra- en Intertalige Transfer Van Schrijfvaardig-Heidsonderwijs

The results of two studies on writing processes are discussed. One study is about the relationship between cognitive activities and text quality in L1, the other on the relationship between Ll-writing profiency and cognitive activities during L2-writing tasks. It is argued that writing tasks in L2 should be more than mere formulating tasks and that both in L1 and in L2 teaching writing curricula should be organized around cognitive and meta-cognitive activities as generating, organizing, monitoring and evaluating in order to, reach intralingual and interlingual transfer of those activities.
