Effective Learning and Teaching of Writing
Effective Learning and Teaching of Writing is a handbook on research on the effective teaching and learning of writing. It is a reference for researchers and educators in the domain of written composition in education. Effective Learning and Teaching of Writing covers all age ranges and school settings and it deals with various aspects of writing and text types. Research methodology varies from experimental studies to reflective classroom practitioners’ research. This new volume in the series Studies in Writing brings together researchers from all kinds of disciplines involved in writing research and countries in their endeavour to improve the teaching of written composition. It is the result of co-operation of researchers all over the world and shows that in spite of the differences in educational regions over the world, research in writing shares similar problems, and tries to find answers, and generate new questions. The body of knowledge in this volume will inspire researchers and teachers to improve research and practice.
Revision Cognitive and Instructional Processes
Revision Revisited LINDA ALLAL* & LUCILE CHANQUOY** *University ofGeneva, SWitzerland, **UniversityofNantes, France Revision is a fundamental component of the writing process. So fundamental that for some specialists writing is largely a matter of revising, or as Murray (1978) stated, "Writing is rewriting..." (p. 85). Experience with writing does not, however, automatically translate into increased skill in revision. Learning to revise is a lengthy, complex endeavor. Beginning writers do little revision spontaneously and even experienced writers encounter difficulties in attempting to improve the quality of their texts (Fitzgerald, 1987). Although revision has been extensively dealt with in...
Social Alternatives in Southern Europe and Latin America
This book deals with the evolution of initiatives connected to the social and solidarity economy and their political cultures and educational implications in the south of Europe and in Latin America. Employing a comparative perspective, the contributors present 11 studies of these trajectories in Argentina, Chile, Portugal, France, Italy, Spain, and Catalonia in order to engender familiarity with social tributary practices and projects in the Latin world. As the cyclical crises of capitalism and their resulting inequalities have created proposals of reform and brought them into action, certain shared ideological influences and policies have emerged across these societies. Faced with the interpretative schemes used for the Anglo-Saxon sphere, which have been the usual reference in international research, this volume’s geographical and cultural matrix of analysis helps fill a longstanding gap in this field. The book will be of interest to scholars, educators, and students specialising in the history and political science of the social and solidarity economy sectors, as well as professionals involved in cooperatives, mutual aid societies, and associations.
Revision
Explores the wide range of scholarship on revision while bringing new light to bear on enduring questions in composition and rhetoric.

Repenser la justice dans le domaine de l'éducation et de la formation
Depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, des objectifs d'égalité gouvernent les politiques d'éducation. L'école est un des instruments sur lesquels l'Etat providence a appuyé sa mission de redistribution. Cette définition est en crise. Les débats montrent que l'idéal d'égalité n'est qu'une définition possible de la justice. D'autres modèles existent : l'objectif de rendre compte au citoyen de la qualité du service public ; l'obligation de résultat qui permet au pays de réussir dans la compétition internationale ; la reconnaissance des différences, celles du handicap ou des origines ethniques, religieuses et culturelles ; l'épanouissement des enfants et le respect de leurs droits, etc. L'ouvrage confronte ces revendications, en identifie les références et les situe dans la recomposition parallèle des formes de la justice et des formes de l'Etat liée à la mondialisation. Il propose donc un large parcours : un dialogue entre histoire, sociologie de l'éducation, sociologie du travail et psychologie ; une mise en perspective internationale ainsi que l'appel à des experts proches du politique.
