Inhaltsangabe

An excellent sourcebook for writing teachers, Writing in a Second Language gathers together some of the most influential and commonly cited articles from both first and second language practice and theory. Featured are E.P.J. Corbett, Ann Raimes, Ilona Leki, Linda Flower, Ruth Spack, Mike Rose, Nancy Sommers, Ann Johns, Vivian Zamel, Peter Elbow, and others.
Chapter One begins with an historical overview that sets the context for understanding where instruction of second language writing has come from and where it is going. Subsequent chapters highlight issues of central concern to contemporary writing teachers and researchers including: the similarities and differences between L1 and L2 writing, the relationship between reading and writing, reader awareness, the processes of composition and revision, responding to student writing, and writing assessment.
Follow-up questions and activities ask the reader to draw upon his/her own experience as a writer to explore the issues further.
