This book makes an original contribution to the field of composition studies, adding an Australasian voice to a global narrative that has been largely dominated by North America. At present, most publications about the teaching of writing are coming out of North America, which has often led to North American assumptions being applied in both research and pedagogically oriented texts about teaching writing worldwide. The relative lack of research emanating from other geographical regions means that there is little basis on which to critique the North American norms inherent in much of that literature, or the extent to which such norms are appropriate to apply outside of North America, where both cultures and education systems are very different from those in North America.

This book offers insights from a new geographical and cultural context, and by illuminating practices related to the teaching and research of writing in the Aotearoa New Zealand context, it serves as a starting point in the critique of norms which have been thus far accepted. It also raises awareness of the potential contributions of applied linguistics and language education to the teaching of writing, and brings together the three disciplines of Composition, English Language Teaching, and Applied Linguistics to show what they have to offer each other. This book is divided into three parts, with each part focusing on studies about writing from a different disciplinary perspective.

It serves as a useful resource to readers involved in the teaching or researching of writing, in any context.
