Connecting Speaking and Writing in Second Language Writing Instruction

Overview

The importance of teaching reading and writing together has been established; now, we have a compelling argument for rethinking and reclaiming the speaking and writing connection. In this book, Weissberg reminds second language writing specialists about the work of Vygotsky and other sociocultural theorists and how social interaction and inner speech play an integral role in writing. In """"Connecting Speaking & Writing in Second Language Writing Instruction"""", Weissberg shows how encouraging concurrent oral-writing proficiencies affects second language learners and how dialogue-writing relationships are developed through writing tasks, group activities, conferencing, dialogue journals, and teacher-written feedback. In short, his well-researched and theoretical treatment of this topic is likely to encourage more teachers to """"socialize"""" their second language writing classrooms.
