In this substantively revised new edition, Hirvela moves beyond the
argument he made in the first edition of the value of connecting
reading and writing. This new edition explains various dimensions
of those connections and offers a fresh look at how to implement
them in L2 writing instruction. It also provides both new and
experienced teachers of writing with a solid grounding in the
theoretical foundations and pedagogical possibilities associated
with reading-writing connections. The new edition features two new
chapters. The first is a chapter on assessment because students are
now being asked to connect reading and writing in the classroom and
on formal assessments like the TOEFL (R). The second new chapter is
an argument for accounting for transfer elements in the teaching
and researching of reading-writing connections. The goals of this
revised volume are to provide: resources for those wishing to
pursue reading-writing connections, summaries of the beliefs
underlying those connections, ideas for teaching the connections in
the classroom, and information about the work others have done to
develop this domain of L2 writing.
