Who will teach writing? Mutilingual
students, writing, ESL, and the disciplinary division of labor revisited
“They Literally Can’t Write a Sentence”:
Ideologies of writing, multilingual university students, and disciplinary
divisions of labor
Disciplinary Division of Labor Revisited:
L2 writing and composition across the (Canadian) university
In a nutshell, I’ve been interested in looking at who is tasked with teaching “writing/ language/ communication” to an increasingly multilingual student body in Canada/North America, and how disciplinary divisions and ideologies contribute to how writing/language/communication instruction is conceived of and carried out at the institutional level and whether there is hope for rapprochement between, say, composition/writing studies, applied linguistics/TESL, and other general areas/approaches.
*I overuse the term "sexy title," but it really captures what I mean for it to mean -- a sexy title in academia is one that provokes people into being interested using something they already feel strongly about, often a current theoretical approach or topic of interest in the field, or in this case, a common experience many have likely had of hearing a colleague say something.
