Abstract:

This book presents the results of research that focused on international
students receiving writing instruction on a US university campus. It explores
how the students developed their foreign-student identities and their own ways
of grappling with the unique issues they encountered as they worked to improve
their academic literacy skills. The book extends the theoretical horizons of
language socialization research by integrating insights from other
disciplinary frameworks, such as a translingual approach, multilingual
literacies and writing center theory, to explore international students’
university experiences. By adopting these varied lenses, the book provides
readers with a more holistic, integrative and ecological understanding of
students’ language and literacy development. The authors also investigate how
a translingual pedagogy informs language instructors and literacy instructors
in facilitating multilingual students’ academic literacy development across a
variety of codes, registers, genres, modes and media.
