Abstract

This volume was conceived as a "best practices" resource for writing teachers in the way that Vocabulary Myths by Keith S. Folse is one for reading and vocabulary teachers. It was written to help ensure that writing teachers are not perpetuating the myths of teaching writing. Each author is a practicing teacher who selected his or her "myth" based on classroom experience and expertise. Both the research and pedagogy in this book are based on the newest research in, for example, teacher preparation, EAP and ESP, and corpus linguistics. The myths discussed in this book are: Teaching vocabulary is not the writing teacher's job. (Keith S. Folse Teaching citation is someone else's job. (Cynthia M. Schuemann) Where grammar is concerned, one size fits all. (Pat Byrd and John Bunting) Academic writing should be assertive and certain. (Ken Hyland) Students must learn to correct all their writing errors. (Dana Ferris) Corpus-based research is too complicated to be useful for writing teachers. (Susan Conrad) Academic writing courses should focus on paragraph and essay development. (Sharon Cavausgil) International and U.S. resident ESL writers cannot be taught in the same class. (Paul Kei Matsuda) The book concludes with a discussion of students' myths about academic writing and teaching written by Joy Reid.

Abstract

Leesbaar schrijven is een boek dat u helpt teksten te schrijven die door de meeste mensen gelezen kunnen worden. De auteurs leggen niet alleen uit hoe u dat best aanpakt, maar ook waarom het zo belangrijk is. Ze beschrijven kort wat lezen is en wat lezen moeilijk maakt en ze tonen hoe leesbaarheid gemeten wordt. Met een hele reeks voorbeelden illustreren ze hoe moeilijke teksten eenvoudiger kunnen. Alle aspecten van een tekst krijgen aandacht: lettertypes, layout, woordkeuze, structuur en lengte van de zin,... Lezers kunnen ook zelf proberen om moeilijke teksten eenvoudiger te maken: elk hoofdstuk van het boek heeft een eigen reeks oefeningen. Met de software die bij het boek hoort (Zelftest Leesbaar Schrijven), kunnen ze hun eigen prestaties beoordelen. (Bron: covertekst)
