    Several new digital tools are devoted to supporting thesis writers. Whilst doctoral thesis writing is a well-studied issue, much less is known about thesis writing within shorter Continental European 3-year undergraduate programmes. To equally study and support thesis writing, we created Thesis Writer (TW), a bilingual (English/German) genre-sensitive tool that offers dissertation writers a word processor with additional support at the conceptual, rhetorical, structural, and organisational level, as well as collaborative writing and feedback functionality. The aim of this presentation is to provide both illustrative data and a synthesis of TW’s affordances in structuring student/supervisor interaction when setting up the first thesis project. One practical concern of high significance is the reaction of supervisors to the tool, as it is essential that supervisors not only accept the tool and its philosophy, but that they actively integrate it into their supervision practices. Preliminary observations have shown that they are creative in cultivating their own ways of using TW when developing a thesis structure. In a case study of ten students at a Swiss University, we observed writer-supervisor interactions during their initial and first follow-up BA thesis meetings, each lasting 60-90 minutes. The meetings were conducted and recorded virtually, to determine how they came to an agreement about the topic, and how they ensured that they both understood it in the same way. This kind of “conceptual alignment” involves negotiated intentions and expectations on both sides when creating a basic proposal structure supported by TW. In adjacent qualitative interviews, students and supervisors were asked about their experiences with this procedure and about their reactions to TW. The results show a broad range of interaction patterns and considerable divergence in the way TW is used.

    In this contribution, we draw on methodology from key logging and writing analytics to offer a fresh look at formulation processes. Key logging captures the inscription processes of writers and by analysing and visualizing them, we can draw inferences on decision making strategies during formulation. At the current stage of our work, we are experimenting with qualitative and quantitative evaluation methodologies. Many of our insights concern formulation patterns that seem typical for digital writing and which make it necessary break new theoretical ground relating formulation to technology use and thinking. Our access point to writing processes is the analysis of texts written within Thesis Writer, a tool that allows writing processes to be tracked visually through a time slider, and to be analysed incrementally and statistically. We follow a writing analytics approach that draws on ongoing writing projects stretching across several months rather than artificial writing assignments for research purposes. We selected nine bachelor theses for analysis. Approximately 2,500 logging data events per text with timestamps and incremental text versions were gathered, processed and analysed in an R environment. We present time slider visualizations of text development and provide qualitative and quantitative evidence demonstrating that thinking and writing in digital contexts connect differently than previously assumed. Our data also demonstrates that writers use far more words than remain in final texts. Revision appears to outweigh planning and idea development as writers are caught in continuous re-writing and rearrangement cycles. We see a tendency away from linear writing to patchwork writing, where chunks of words are placed on screen and rearranged until idea development stops. Text progress also appears connected to growing lexical density, showing that new words needed to develop a text are added in successive revision cycles, and that idea development necessarily connects to this lexical enrichment.

    “What do people want to do when they write − and what do they actually do?” (Perrin 2003, 825). This question in the introduction to an issue of the Journal of Pragmatics has contributed to shifting the focus of writing research from cognitive to social and pragmatic aspects of text production, forgrounding the relevance of writers’ pragmatic competence. Text processes and production are influenced by writers’ cultural and biographical background, (professional) role in the respective communicative setting, the concrete communicative situation, as well as the communicative patterns of the community of practice (Wenger, 1998). At the same time, text evaluation and text impact depend on readers’ perception and involvement. These processes, driving and driven by language use in sociocultural contexts, trigger the topics and foci of research in pragmatics (Verschueren 2001). Research so far in this field has provided evidence of pragmatic competence as a key sub-competence of writing and writers (Konstantinidou, Hoefele & Kruse, 2016). In our panel, we focus on pragmatic aspects of writing in specific sociocultural context, social settings, and situations of language use. We investigate both the development and teaching of pragmatic competence in multilingual and professional settings. By doing so, we reflect on the relation of pragmatic competence with the quality of both writing processes and text products and discuss the challenges of measuring pragmatic competence using automated assessment methods.

    Online first, part of special issue "Methods for understanding writing process by analysis of writing timecourse" Erworben im Rahmen der Schweizer Nationallizenzen (http://www.nationallizenzen.ch) ; Producing written texts is a non-linear process: in contrast to speech, writers are free to change already written text at any place at any point in time. Linguistic considerations are likely to play an important role, but so far, no linguistic models of the writing process exist. We present an approach for the analysis of writing processes with a focus on linguistic structures based on the novel concepts of transforming sequences, text history, and sentence history. The processing of raw keystroke logging data and the application of natural language processing tools allows for the extraction and filtering of product and process data to be stored in a hierarchical data structure. This structure is used to re-create and visualize the genesis and history for a text and its individual sentences. Focusing on sentences as primary building blocks of written language and full texts, we aim to complement established writing process analyses and, ultimately, to interpret writing timecourse data with respect to linguistic structures. To enable researchers to explore this view, we provide a fully functional implementation of our approach as an open-source software tool and visualizations of the results. We report on a small scale exploratory study in German where we used our tool. The results indicate both the feasibility of the approach and that writers actually revise on a linguistic level. The latter confirms the need for modeling written text production from the perspective of linguistic structures beyond the word level.

    Invited talk at Université Sorbonne nouvelle in the project "ANR Pro-TEXT – Les processus de textualisation: modélisations linguistiques, psycholinguistiques et d’apprentissage automatique" pro-text.huma-num.fr at Clesthia, Université Sorbonne nouvelle (USN), CERCA, CNRS – Université de Poitiers (UdP), and LIPN, CNRS – Université Paris Nord (UPN) ; We are currently working on THETool (Text History Extraction Tool). The goal is to explore writing on a structural level (syntax in the broadest sense). We have two concrete goals for our research: (a) on a theoretical level: How do writers produce (i.e., write and revise, incl. deletion) multi-word discourse structures like: - argumentative elements ("on the one hand" -- "on the other hand") - hedges ("so to speak") - booster ("in fact") (b) on a practical level: How to support writers to use those structures effectively in academic writing (general use, variation, etc.)? With THETool we can parse keystroke-logging data and create text and sentence histories for a particular writing session. Sentence histories cover all events relevant for a particular sentence, so one can follow what the writer did even when they came back to a sentence several times. As we are interested in multi-word structures, we introduce the notion of relevant edits. This allows us to filter production and editing we are not interested in. Here that would be edits on the word level like corrections for potential typos and spelling errors. In this talk I will present the architecture and functioning of THETool and some first results for German writing sessions.

    Proceedings: archive.xmlprague.cz/2022/files/xmlprague-2022-proceedings.pdf ; In the 1990s, the focus on the printed page as the final product of writing with WYSIWYG tools clashed first with the development of the Web and a decade later with the advent of mobile devices. Both developments enabled— and required—new types of documents and thus demanded new tools and processes for producing these documents. In the 2010s, the emphasis on writing experience, personalization of tools, and the growing diversity of input devices, methods, and displays is the main reason for the design and development of “new writing tools.” Their functionalities are often working implementations of methods and concepts originally described and devel- oped in the 1960s and 1970s that seem to have failed due to the limitations of computers at that time. Dedicated research on writing tools stopped in the late 1980s, once universities and companies had decided what to purchase and Microsoft Word had achieved monopoly status in the consumer market. The shift of academic writing to include dynamic aspects of “text,” e.g., code (snippets), data plots, and other visualizations clearly demands other tools for text production than traditional word processors. When the printed page no longer is the desired final product, content and format can be addressed explicitely and separately, thus emphasizing the structure of texts rather than the structure of documents.

    Research on writing tools stopped in the late 1980s when Microsoft Word had achieved monopoly status. However, the development of the Web and the advent of mobile devices are increasingly rendering static print-like documents obsolete. In this vision paper we reflect on the impact of this development on scholarly writing and publishing. Academic publications increasingly include dynamic elements, e.g., code, data plots, and other visualizations, which clearly requires other tools for document production than traditional word processors. When the printed page no longer is the desired final product, content and form can be addressed explicitly and separately, thus emphasizing the structure of texts rather than the structure of documents. The resulting challenges have not yet been fully addressed by document engineering.

    This chapter explains why practices of writing are key for managers and leaders. It draws on two action research case studies that illustrate the needs for and benefits of empirically based knowledge on writing in management and leadership roles. An overview of the state of research shows that, besides multitudes of analyses of managerial genres as final products, only little research has been done to understand and improve the dynamic processes of writing in the field. The chapter concludes that future directions of research must include investigating how the rapidly increasing amount of written management and leadership communication comes into being and how its quality can be improved through management education. The structure of the chapter takes the readers from the topic’s relevance (Section 1) to the fragmentary state of research (2), the two case studies (3, 4), and suggestions to close the research gap through a dynamic approach (5).
