Including a foreword by Professor Ken Hyland, it brings together a number of thought-provoking chapters on the history, concept, and ground realities coupled with critical comparative discussions of writing centres in the region. The book begins by offering critical historical accounts of writing centers in the Gulf countries, before moving onto empirical research and reports on pedagogical practices that vividly capture the on-the-ground realities faced and experienced by different actors. These accounts serve to highlight how the writing centers vary between countries, as well as how they differ from the more well-known writing centers in the US and the UK. Finally, the book explores what sort of commonalities and differences the current trend of writing centres is producing within and between the six countries of the Arabian Gulf. This book will be highly relevant to those involved with writing centres along with directors, policymakers, researchers and teacher educators in the fields of Education and Sociology, particularly those with an interest in the Arabian Gulf area. 000823538 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed September 19, 2017). 000823538 650_0 $$aWriting centers$$zPersian Gulf. 000823538 7001_ $$aBarnawi, Osman Z.,$$eeditor. 000823538 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3319553658$$z9783319553658$$w(OCoLC)972773163 000823538 852__ $$bebk 000823538 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-55366-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000823538 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:823538$$pGLOBAL_SET 000823538 980__ $$aEBOOK 000823538 980__ $$aBIB 000823538 982__ $$aEbook 000823538 983__ $$aOnline 000823538 994__ $$a92$$bISE
