| Synopsis: |
Reflecting the internationalization of the field of second language writing, this book focuses on political aspects and pedagogical issues of writing instruction and testing. Specifically it explores how writing assessment in a range of global contexts- be it the College English Test in China, Common Core aligned assessments in the U.S., English proficiency tests in Poland, or the material conditions (such as access to technology, training, and other resources)-impacts the lives of L2 writers and their teachers around the world.Diversity on multiple levels is a central theme cross-cutting through the work: * Author diversity: Contributors represent a range of institutional contexts and currently work in 12 different countries; a mix of established and emerging scholars provides name recognition while providing a venue for some of the newest work in the field * Methodological diversity: Chapters include individual and program case studies, critical analyses of public policies, interviews with dozens of teachers across different country contexts, and also draw from personal experience * Topic diversity: Chapters look at writing assessment locally and nationally in 15 countries: China, Mexico, Poland, Brazil, India, Vietnam, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Macedonia, Austria, South Korea, Chile, and the United States * Disciplinary diversity: Chapters reflect the transdisciplinary nature of L2 writing, with scholars situated in writing studies, education, and applied linguistics |
