Subject: Call for Chapters/Materials Proposals: Peer Review and Communicative L2 Writing Practices


Call for Materials Proposals: Peer Review and Communicative L2 Writing
Practices
www.cultivatingconfidencebook.com
Deadline: May 31, 2025
The editors are inviting proposals (100-200 words) along with a sample
material for a forthcoming collection of innovative peer-review and
communicative practices in L2 writing classrooms.
Sharing second-language writing classroom practices that integrate
communication helps address challenges like the isolating nature of
writing tasks. This collection will introduce innovative peer review
practices and tools to foster a communicative environment, benefiting
both experienced and new teachers. By integrating these activities,
writing teachers can help students build confidence as language
learners and authors while engaging more deeply with the writing
process and enhancing their overall language skills.
The editors would like to see practices, step-by-step guides, and
materials that any teacher can easily implement in their classroom
practice.
All accepted submissions will share classroom activities that promote
the following:
- Peer review practices
- Strategies for training students to give and receive feedback
- Speaking in writing activities
- Techniques for verbalizing the writing process
- Strategies for scaffolding communication into the writing process
- Conversations about writing
- Spoken Reflections about writing
- Comparisons of peer review practices
- Strategies for low-level learners
- Strategies to include shy & introverted students
- CLIL projects that combine writing and speaking
- Skills based practices to improve student confidence
This is not a call for research-based submissions. More information
and submission procedures can be found on our website at
www.cultivatingconfidencebook.com.
Contributors are welcome to submit multiple proposals; however, please
complete a new submission form for each practice you would like to be
considered for inclusion. The deadline for submission is May 31, 2025.
The collection will be published as a companion volume to Cultivating
Confidence in L2 Writing: Communicative and peer review practices
(Eds. Ashton E. Dawes & Kathryn Jurns), slated for publication by
Candlin & Mynard ePublishing in early 2026 as part of their Positive
Pedagogical Praxis series. The series focuses on offering advice,
sharing activities, and giving pragmatic guides to enhance teaching
practices.
