Summary
The aim of this pioneering volume is to advance our understanding of written language learning in instructed SLA. This is achieved through a collection of empirical studies in which the contribution of diverse theoretical perspectives to our understanding of L2 writing development will be explored. The volume will be of great interest to academics in the disciplines of second/foreign language acquisition (SLA) and second/foreign language (L2) writing.
