Call for Papers

The focus of this 7th workshop is the relationship between units of language 
and units of writing. Especially welcome are contributions on the following 
questions: 
- How are units of language and units of writing related? Which levels are
involved and which kinds of relationships are maintained ?
- Which models of language and writing accommodate the relationships that have
been established?
- How do writers map units of language onto units of writing?
- How do readers map units of writing onto units of language?
- Does knowledge of the relationship between speech and writing in one language
influence one's understanding of the same connection in a foreign language?
- How do teaching techniques influence literacy development?
- What is the role of writing in acquiring knowledge of one's mother tongue ?
- What is the role of writing in foreign language education ?

Invited Speakers: David Olson (International Society for the Study of Speech 
and Writing in Context), Michel Fayol (Observatoire national de la lecture,
France), and Vivian Cook (Professor of Applied Linguistics, Newcastle)
