Chris Thaiss is Clark Kerr Presidential Chair and Professor in the University Writing Program at the University of California, Davis. Gerd Bräuer directs the distance-learning program for teachers at the Writing Center at the University of Education in Freiburg, Germany. Paula Carlino is a researcher with the National Council of Scientific and Technical Research, CONICET, at the University of Buenos Aires. Lisa Ganobcsik-Williams is Head of the Centre for Academic Writing at Coventry University. Aparna Sinha is pursuing her PhD in Education at the University of California, Davis, with designated emphases in Writing Studies and in Second Language Acquisition.
Emerging from the International WAC/WID Mapping Project, this collection of essays is meant to inform decision-making by teachers, program managers, and college/university administrators considering how writing can most appropriately be defined, managed, funded, and taught in the places where they work. Writing Programs Worldwide offers an important global perspective to the growing research literature in the shaping of writing programs. The authors of its program profiles show how innovators at a diverse range of universities on six continents have dealt creatively over many years with day-to-day and long-range issues affecting how students across disciplines and languages grow as communicators and learners.
