Tóm tắt

Parallel to current trends in communication across the curriculum (CXC), the field of writing across the curriculum (WAC) earlier experienced a shift from generalized writing-to-learn emphases to more discipline-specific writing research and instruction. Based on studies of course demands as well as of writing in the professions, the consensus among WAC teachers now recognizes that the teaching of writing in disciplines must align with the particular practices of those disciplines, though that alignment is not always easy to achieve. Some critics of this consensus echo concerns expressed in this issue by Fleury, that teaching in a discipline-specific manner will fragment the humanistic mission of teaching speaking or writing. Yet, students wrestling to learn discipline-specific rhetorics can yet accomplish the humanistic tasks of finding identity and even challenging prevailing language conventions.
