Transnational Writing Education Summary

Transnational Writing Education: Theory, History, and Practice by Xiaoye You

Arguing that writing teachers need to enable students to recognize, negotiate with, deconstruct, and transcend national, racial, ethnic, and linguistic boundaries, this volume proposes a transnational framework as an alternative approach to literacy education and as a vital component to cultivating students as global citizens. In a field of evolving literacy practices, this volume builds off the three pillars of transnational writing education-translingualism, transculturalism, and cosmopolitanism-and offers both conceptual and practice-based support for scholars, students, and educators in order to address current issues of inclusion, multilingual learning, and diversity.

Transnational Writing Education Reviews

I commend this book unreservedly as it crosses disciplinary and linguistic boundaries in defining 'transnational writing education.' This book is of imminent value for teachers and scholars in the diverse field of writing education in their quest toward improved writing pedagogies.

Ulla Connor, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, USA

Xiaoye You's valuable book adds to the growing body of work on writing theory and practice outside the normal English-dominant settings and beyond the stereotypical types of English language writing that have been done in school settings.

Christine Pearson Casanave, Temple University, Japan

Few works as successfully cross disciplinary, geographic, and linguistic boundaries as this volume does. Both those new to the idea of transcending national boundaries in writing education and those who have long attempted it will find much of value in the wealth of theory- and practice-oriented contents on offer.

Diane D. Belcher, Georgia State University, USA

This volume represents a new departure in transnational/transcultural writing studies. It is sure to have a wide and diverse audience.

Dwight Atkinson, University of Arizona, USA
