PERSPECTIVES ON WRITING, Series Editor, SUSAN H. MCLEOD The thirty
chapters in INTERNATIONAL ADVANCES IN WRITING RESEARCH: CULTURES,
PLACES, MEASURES were selected from the more than 500 presentations
at the Writing Research Across Borders II Conference in 2011. With
representatives from more than forty countries, this conference
gave rise to the International Society for the Advancement of
Writing Research. The chapters selected for this collection
represent cutting edge research on writing from all regions,
organized around three themes-cultures, places, and measures. The
authors report research that considers writing in all levels of
schooling, in science, in the public sphere, and in the workplace,
as well as the relationship among these various places of writing.
The authors also consider the cultures of writing-among them
national cultures, gender cultures, schooling cultures, scientific
cultures, and cultures of the workplace. CHARLES BAZERMAN,
Professor of Education at the University of California, Santa
Barbara, is the author of numerous publications on the social role
of writing, academic genres, and textual analysis. CHRIS DEAN,
Lecturer in the Writing Program at the University of California,
Santa Barbara, recently co-authored the textbook, Terra Incognita:
Researching the Weird. JESSICA EARLY, Assistant Professor of
English at Arizona State University, is the author of Opening the
Gates: Creating Real World Writing Opportunities For Diverse
Secondary Students and Stirring Up Justice: Reading and Writing to
Change the World. KAREN LUNSFORD, Associate Professor of Writing at
the University of California, Santa Barbara, has published on
issues including multimodality, science writing, and policy issues
that affect writing research. SUZIE NULL, Assistant Professor of
Teacher Education at Fort Lewis College in Durango, Colorado,
