Writing centers in universities and colleges aim to help student
writers develop practices that will make them better writers in the
long term and that will improve their draft papers in the short
term. The tutors who work in writing centers accomplish such goals
through one-to-one talk about writing. This book analyzes the
aboutness of writing center talk-what tutors and student writers
talk about when they come together to talk about writing. By
combining corpus-driven analysis to provide a quantitative,
microlevel view of the subject matter and sociocultural discourse
analysis to provide a qualitative macrolevel view of tutor-student
writer interactions, it further establishes how these two research
methods operate together to produce a robust and rigorous analysis
of spoken discourse.
