Dreyfus, Sally Humphrey, Ahmar Mahboob, J. R. MartinLondon :Palgrave Macmillan UK :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2016.1 online resource (XV, 298 p.) 1-349-56171-1 This book describes the linguistic and pedagogical dimensions of a large action research project that deployed and extended the current work on genre pedagogy to an on-line learning environment. In particular, it explores how genre-based pedagogy can be used to support the academic literacy development of non-English speaking background (NESB) students in tertiary educational institutions to develop their academic literacy practice. The book reports on work with the Department of Chinese, Translation & Linguistics (CTL) and the Department of Biology and Chemistry (BCH) in a 2-year project called the SLATE (Scaffolding Literacy in Academic and Tertiary Environments) project. It includes theoretically and practically-oriented material that can serve the needs of researchers and practitioners engaged with the literacy development of tertiary students in both English-speaking and non-English speaking countries.EducationLinguisticsLanguage and educationHigher educationLiteracyLanguage and languagesStudy and teachingEducationHigher EducationLiteracyLanguage TeachingLinguistics, generalLanguage EducationEducation.Linguistics.Language and education.Higher education.Literacy.Language and languagesStudy and teaching.Education.Higher Education.Literacy.Language Teaching.Linguistics, general.Language Education.378Dreyfus Shoshana J1225701Humphrey SallyMahboob AhmarMartin J.
