Description

Linking Literacies: Perspectives on L2 Reading-Writing Connections is a comprehensive collection of research and pedagogy on the connection between reading and writing in second language acquisition. Diane D. Belcher and Alan R. Hirvela bring together key developments in this field, exploring how first language influences shape second language reading-writing theory and practice. The book examines the ways in which L2 reading-writing scholarship has created an identity separate from its first language framework, as well as the challenges of textual ownership and the role of technology in reading and writing. Organized into four parts, Linking Literacies covers a range of topics, including teaching reading as writing, merging literacies, and technology-assisted reading and writing. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in second language acquisition, literacy education, or language teaching methodologies.
