<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Work Sans"">In the last 15 years or so there has been an emerging realization in the field of English for academic purposes, and among applied linguists, that traditional models of academic literacy
support in universities need to be reassessed in light of changing attitudes, contexts and agendas. Most obviously, the internationalization of universities, a cause and consequence of the globalization of the sector, has meant that the student demographic
has become more linguistically and culturally diverse than ever before; this includes students originating from diverse educational systems and cultures. Along with this development, the widening participation agenda has been increasingly prominent in university
strategy as governments emphasize the need for a more skilled workforce able to grow their economies and make them more competitive. In some cases, national targets have been set, along with quotas that encourage universities to enroll a proportion of students
from socially and educationally disadvantaged backgrounds and to which funding conditions are attached. The resultant change in the student population has meant that universities today can make fewer assumptions about the academic literacy skills with which
students come to their studies, especially given that English language gatekeeping tests are no guarantee of their ability cope with the particular literacy demands of their individual disciplines. This raises questions about how best to address the needs
of these students and, critically, whether their needs are fundamentally different from those of the student population in general.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Work Sans"">This talk will look at the issue of embedding academic literacy within the curriculum, a response to these and related questions
and which has been gaining significant momentum over recent years, following a lot of formative work in Australia. Based on his personal experience of embedding and the reports of others recounted in the literature, the speaker will make the case for embedding,
before looking at some of the key challenges those embarking on any such initiative are likely to encounter. He will go on to look at two models of embedding and the particular obstacles that arise in each case, before concluding by offering a prognosis. By
focusing on the challenges involved in embedding academic literacy in the curriculum, the intention is not to present a picture of a hopeless endeavour but rather to offer an honest assessment of the complex nature of the territory that can serve as a point
of reference for those who may be about to navigate through it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
