This book addresses issues surrounding writing centers in the
Arabian Gulf region. Including a foreword by Professor Ken Hyland,
it brings together a number of thought-provoking chapters on the
history, concept, and ground realities coupled with critical
comparative discussions of writing centres in the region. The book
begins by offering critical historical accounts of writing centers
in the Gulf countries, before moving onto empirical research and
reports on pedagogical practices that vividly capture the
on-the-ground realities faced and experienced by different actors.
These accounts serve to highlight how the writing centers vary
between countries, as well as how they differ from the more
well-known writing centers in the US and the UK. Finally, the book
explores what sort of commonalities and differences the current
trend of writing centres is producing within and between the six
countries of the Arabian Gulf. This book will be highly relevant to
those involved with writing centres along with directors,
policymakers, researchers and teacher educators in the fields of
Education and Sociology, particularly those with an interest in the
Arabian Gulf area.
