Beschreibung

Most of what we know about writing in a second or foreign language (L2) is based on conclusions drawn from research on L2 writing in English. However, a significant quantity of L2 writing and writing instruction takes place in languages other than English and so there is a need for studies that look beyond English. The chapters in this book focus on languages other than English and investigate curricular issues, multiple languages in contact/conflict in L2 writing instruction and student attitudes toward pedagogical practices. The collection as a whole makes a valuable contribution to the study of L2 writing, and it will also prove an essential resource for instructors of second and foreign language writing.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

This informative and valuable collection advances our understanding of L2 writing with its focus on the distinctive challenges faced when writing in a range of additional languages other than English is learned and taught in a variety of instructional contexts across the world. The book hence fills an important gap in L2 writing scholarship. * Rosa M. Manchon, University of Murcia, Spain * In assembling this cogent and accessible volume on L2 writing in languages other than English, Nur Yigitoglu and Melinda Reichelt have made a long-needed and important contribution to L2 writing scholarship, moving the field toward a broader and more realistic and comprehensive understanding of the nature of L2 writing. * Tony Silva, Purdue University, USA * As the first book of its kind, this edited volume brings together a collection of chapters that examine second language writing in non-English languages ranging from popular languages like French and Spanish to underrepresented ones such as Basque and Polish. It is a must-read book for those interested in researching second language writing in languages other than English, as well as those helping primary, secondary and/or university students develop second language writing competence in non-English languages. * Icy Lee, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong *
