Knowledge Making from a Postgraduate Writers' Circle
This book seeks to disrupt the narrative about the process of academic writing and the written products which are currently valued in the university. The author uses writing as both a subject and a method of enquiry in an ethnographic deep dive into her long-term engagement with a postgraduate writers' circle in an elite South African university.
@StephZihms yes, the Manchester Phrasebank is GOOD!
Scott Thornberry & UEFAP were also suggested on X but more as glossaries whereas I wondered about a more substantial resource, one about key terms and concepts that have a history & that are contested (see thread at https://twitter.com/pace_ou/status/1785572527139373518).
My need is more along the lines of https://plato.stanford.edu/, the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (which has referenced definitional entries).
Something similar for #tleap, that can be referenced.
PACE: Academic Literacies @OUGradSch & @OU_LAL (@pace_ou) on X
Grateful for shares so far👇🏽eg UEFAP & Scott Thornberry - really useful but fragmented, in the sense that they're in different places, formats, individually produced. Am feeling a strong need for something like #SEP https://t.co/4EuW406jxn, an evolving encyclopedia of #tleap{JM}
Is there an authoritative peer reviewed & referenced #OpenAccess dictionary of #tleap (Teaching English for Academic Purposes) with definitions/explanations of common yet slippery concepts eg #AcademicVoice #Criticality #Argument, etc?

For those curious about #Feminism and its relevance to #tleap (Teaching English for Academic Purposes) this event may be of interest:
At 4pm (UK) on Thursday 25 January, I'm giving a #IOEWritingSeminar on how the theory of #CriticalRealism helps me make sense of #WhatMakesWritingAcademic.
Chaired by my #OpenUniversity colleague Dr Jackie Tuck.
Looking forward to reading this as soon as the price comes down:

Book Reviews - Alex Ding
[Just had a flashback to my former life in #tleap (teaching & learning EAP - English for Academic Purposes) and to the 'inspiration' behind #WhatMakesWritingAcademic: my students would NEVER have been allowed (by the other teachers) to get away with writing 'why *things* matter to *people*'🤣 #AcWri]
