    Das niedersächsische Kerncurriculum Geschichte sieht für die Jahrgänge 5-10 nicht vor, ideologiekritisches Arbeiten zu ermöglichen. Erst in der Oberstufe sind solche Arbeitsweisen vorgesehen. Doch sind jüngere Schülerinnen und Schüler nicht in der Lage dazu? Oder hat bisher niemand versucht, ideologiekritische Verfahrensweisen explizit im Unterricht anzuwenden, wo doch die Geschichtsdidaktiker Michael Sauer und Klaus Bergmann durchaus darauf hinweisen? Die vorliegende Arbeit widmet sich der Frage, ob es Schülerinnen und Schülern einer 10. Gymnasialklasse gelingt, Textauszüge eines belasteten NS-Romans ideologiekritisch zu analysieren, Ideologeme herauszuarbeiten, Textstellen und Sprache zu untersuchen und ihr Vorgehen metakognitiv zu hinterfragen. Die Arbeit runden ausführliche Arbeitsmaterialien ab, mithilfe derer das unmittelbare Arbeiten im Unterricht ermöglicht wird. Dabei können die Materialien sowohl im Deutsch- als auch Geschichtsunterricht angewendet werden.

    This is a collection of all references found in a study of Shakespearean Intertextuality. I collected references to Shakespeare and his works in the complete works of 11 contemporary British writers. The corpus includes several hundred contemporary British texts, most of which were novels. A few graphic novels, collections of short stories and autobriographies make up the rest of the texts. All references are given with their context, the original line they quote, the texts they pertain to and a score that counts the verbatim referencing words in the contemporary texts. The appendix contains further references not discussed in the study, a full list of all works examined and further metadata. ; Zur Publikation: Molz, Johannes: A Close and Distant Reading of Shakespearean Intertextuality: Towards a Mixed Method Approach for Literary Studies.

  3. Digitalization of writing : do we really understand how much writing is changing? : and do we react properly to the challenges, digitization poses on teaching and research?

    Although all members of EATAW will have their own thoughts on digitalization and, recently, more publications are devoted to this topic, we miss coherent discourses and feel that other contexts (mainly from the IT disciplines) have taken the lead in these discussions. For future EATAW conferences, we suggest placing a strong emphasis on digitalization and would like to discuss which aspects of it should be stressed most. For a first step, it would be great to initiate an exchange on hot issues in teaching and research related to digitalization and explore ideas for future collaboration. Christian Rapp and Otto Kruse will give an introduction to the session and explain the idea of it with a short input about some problems connected to the challenges of new digital tools for the teaching of writing and the question of whether and how much writing teachers should take over control and ownership of the new technology or leave it to the IT and E-Learning disciplines. Kalli Benetos will talk about the need for researchers and educators to put DESIGN and intent before technology in adopting more design-based research approaches to drive technology development and uses, instead of being led by "market forces". Chris Anson will address the following question: What are the consequences - ethical, developmental, rhetorical, and interpersonal - of having computers “read” and evaluate student writing?

    Transdisciplinary research is research not only on, but also for and, most of all, with practitioners. In the research framework of transdisciplinarity, scholars and practitioners collaborate throughout research projects with the aim of mutual learning. This paper shows the value transdisciplinarity can add to media linguistics. It does so by investigating the digital literacy shift in journalism: the change, in the last two decades, from the predominance of a writing mode that we have termed focused writing to a mode we have called writing-by-the-way. Large corpora of writing process data have been generated and analyzed with the multimethod approach of progression analysis in order to combine analytical depth with breadth. On the object level of doing writing in journalism, results show that the general trend towards writing-by-the-way opens up new niches for focused writing. On a meta level of doing research, findings explain under what conditions transdisciplinarity allows for deeper insights into the medialinguistic object of investigation.

    Schreiben gehört in zahlreichen Berufsfeldern zum Anforderungsprofil der Mitarbeitenden. Die entsprechenden, oft sehr spezifischen Kompetenzen werden in der Berufsausbildung oder im Studium indes meist nicht vermittelt. Unternehmen, Behörden und weitere Organisationen bieten ihrer Belegschaft deshalb oft interne Schreibfortbildungen an. Die Wirkung solcher Fortbildungsmaßnahmen ist allerdings – nicht nur, aber auch im Bereich des Schreibens – kaum erforscht. Im Rahmen der hier vorgestellten Einzelfall-Evaluation wurde eine mehrjährige Inhouse Schreibfortbildung multiperspektivisch untersucht. Als Methoden kamen u.a. schriftliche Befragungen, Fokusgruppeninterviews mit Kursteilnehmenden, eine Textanalyse und Interviews mit typischen Leser(inne)n zur Anwendung. Die Evaluation zeigt, dass die regelmäßige, teamzentrierte Fortbildung vor allem positive Auswirkungen auf die individuellen und kooperativen Schreibprozesse hatte. Zudem konnte ein positiver Effekt auf die Kooperationsbereitschaft und die Identifikation mit dem Team festgestellt werden. Nicht nachgewiesen werden konnten hingegen Auswirkungen auf die Qualität der Texte einzelner Autor(inn)en.

    The evolution of digital technologies and the writing tools that have subsequently been developed from them opened the way for the emergence of writing analytics as a field of academic research. Within digital writing tools, writing analytics are used to gather and analyze data for research, and to provide automated feedback for writers and insights for instructors. Writing analytics methods and tools can help improve our understanding of writing processes and products. Current reviews of digital writing tools show that much of what writing analytics has to offer has been garnered for the purposes of automating evaluation and scoring, leaving an application gap for writing tools that support pedagogies aiming to develop effective writing strategies. Building upon the development of writing analytics methods and tools can help future tool designs to better support effective writing pedagogy and practice, and suggest future foci for writing analytics advancement. This proposed workshop aims to bring together writing pedagogy researchers, writing instructors, writing tool developers, and writing analytics specialists in order to explore the potential contributions of their respective fields in the development of effective digital writing environments, and also to provide a forum for the planning of future collaborative works.

    Die Digitalisierung hat in den letzten vierzig Jahren alles auf den Kopf gestellt, was die Gutenberg-Ära uns an Schreibtechniken, Literalitätsformen und Textwelten hinterlassen hat. Nicht allein die Schreibprogramme in unseren Computern waren für diese Revolution verantwortlich, sondern auch die Flut an Innovationen, die im Gefolge von Internet & Co. entstanden sind. Zusammen mit den Neuerungen des Cloud-Computings und Machine Learnings haben wir jetzt Maschinen zur Verfügung, die nicht einfach Schreibmedium sind, sondern das Denken und Formulieren beim Schreiben aktiv unterstützen oder sogar selbst die Textproduktion übernehmen.Wir werden die Entwicklung der Digitalisierung des Schreibens kurz rekonstruieren und dann mit Thesis Writer ein eigenes Tool vorstellen, das zeigt, welche Möglichkeiten die neue Technologie heute bietet. Thesis Writer enthält einen neu gestalteten, virtuellen Arbeitspatz für Schreibende, der eine ganze Serie unterstützender Tools in Klickweite bereithält. Prozessunterstützung, rhetorische Hilfen, Kooperations- und Feedbackmöglichkeiten, Projektmanagement und einiges mehr sind so in den Arbeitsplatz integriert, dass sie den Schreibfluss unterstützen, ohne die Schreibenden allzu sehr im Denken zu unterbrechen.In diesem Beitrag werden wir auch darauf eingehen, welche Dimensionen diese digitalen Neuerungen angenommen haben und wie wir uns in der Schreibdidaktik der Auseinandersetzung mit ihnen stellen können. Wir werden, um in der Metapher des Räumlichen zu bleiben, den Seamless-Learning-Ansatz bemühen, um zu zeigen, wie sich die Kontexte verschoben haben und weiter verschieben, in die studentisches Schreiben eingebunden ist.

    In this demonstration we present a bilingual writing platform called Thesis Writer (TW), designed to help student writers with their first or second thesis and its supervision. TW responds to problems arising of the Bologna reform with a first research-based paper due after only three years where students often are not sufficiently prepared yet. Thesis Writer provides a digital workspace that combines a word editor with several help functions, such as Tutorials, Examples, Phrase-books, Corpus search tools, an Outline function, Note cards, and a Reference Manager. It has been implemented as Software as a Service (SaaS), enabling a significant number of users to work simultaneously and even collaboratively.

    A thesis is the capstone writing experience of almost all degree programs. With the Bologna reform, a BA thesis is required already after three years of study, often leaving students inadequately prepared. In contrast to PhD thesis supervision, BA thesis supervision has attracted limited scholarly attention to date. Advances in computational linguistics and informatics in recent years have led to the rapid development of systems that support various types of writing, as well as numerous sub-processes. Using conceptual alignment as a framework, this study reports the preliminary results of a larger research project on (a) how students and supervisors at the BA level reach agreement regarding a thesis proposal concept, and (b) the impact of new technology on this process.

    In the age of cloud computing and machine learning, innovative writing technologies appear to offer promising new ways of influencing thought processes and higher-order cognition of writers. These new tools support writers by helping them manage the complex interrelation between thinking, language use, communication, and text production. We will offer a short synopsis of the principal technological solutions and picture what their pedagogical impact on the teaching and learning of writing might be. Then, we will give three different examples of how new tools try to support the thinking behind writing.

    This chapter extends the scope of the term ‘seamless learning’ to include writing as one of the most prominent learning activities in education. The seamless learning concept is used to analyse the ongoing flow of digital innovation with respect to the changing instructional and intellectual positioning of writing in its various contexts. The term ‘seams’ is interpreted as frictions or barriers in the writer’s experience, and the concept of ‘seamlessness’ refers to coherence in the practice and learning of writing. In order to understand the impact of digitisation on writing, this chapter recaps on the major development steps of digital writing technology, before offering an example of an integrated learning platform for the writing of academic theses which intends to offer students a seamless writing experience. The results indicate that the term seamlessness in the context of writing should not be directly associated with mobile learning or to the ubiquitous learning opportunities which are qualities that writing technologies have already offered for some time. Other more recent technological changes have provided considerably greater impact on what the authors term as ‘seamless writing’.

    This presentation reports on the creation of a bilingual academic phrasebook (or two corresponding phrasebooks in English and German), which is based on two corpora of 20,000 English and 16,000 German documents, as a work in progress. Built on the Manchester Phrasebank methodology, the present project focuses on collecting phrases and examining connections between the two languages. What we refer to as a phrasebook is a collection of expressions used to perform the most important speech acts in academic papers. As an inventory of frequently used expressions in research articles and theses, the collection is a representation of the functional aspects of academic language and, as such, may be viewed as a rhetoric for academic texts. In the presentation, we describe how phrases are selected and organized along the IMRD sequence in order to correspond with the composition process. We also outline a theoretical framework grounded in genre theory, rhetoric and linguistics to provide the basis for the phrasebook’s planned pedagogical uses, as well as lay some foundations for this branch of research. In addition, we demonstrate how the phrases may be used to support authors in a digital learning environment called Thesis Writer, in which the phrases are available to writers when their papers demand certain speech acts. The most important part of our presentation will be a reflection on the parallelism of German and English expressions, with a brief overview of some of the similarities and differences in frequencies found when comparing the two languages. While the phrasebook is a key component in the structure of Thesis Writer, our intention is to make it available as a separate digital tool to be used independently. Concluding, we summarize our experience thus far with the uses and limitations of academic phrases in the teaching of academic writing, both in L1 and L2.
