Chinese Students' Writing in English (eBook, ePUB)

Implications from a corpus-driven study

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book is theoretically framed through work within academic literacies, lexical priming and formulaic language to provide a fresh perspective on student writing in the twenty-first century. The author seeks to explore Chinese students' writing and to use these findings to inform pedagogical recommendations for Higher Education teachers in general and teachers of Chinese students in particular, arguing that in a globalized educational environment it is important for educators to understand differences in writing styles across the student body.
