>Recent decades have seen the growth of writing studies in many nations,
>focused on all levels of education, and all uses of writing in society,
>using the resources of many different disciplines. This increased
>research attention to writing reflects an increased recognition of the
>importance of writing in modern societies. Yet to a large extent the many
>emerging traditions of writing research have neither connected fully nor
>shared their work.
>
>This conference brings together the many writing researchers from around
>the world, drawing on all disciplines, and focused on all aspects of
>writing at all levels of development and in all segments of society. This
>will be an opportunity to learn from different research traditions, share
>our findings, seek common agendas, and lay the groundwork for future
>communication and alliances.
>
>As a first step to building this important conversation we have invited
>some of the leading writing researchers, and those listed at the bottom of
>this call have already committed to participating.
>
>We are now issuing an open call for proposals for panels, roundtables,
>individual presentations, and poster presentations addressing
>* current research on writing,
>* methodological issues
>* reflections on ongoing research programs
>* considerations of national or disciplinary trajectories of research
>* agendas for further research
>We anticipate a program of up to two hundred and fifty presentations.
>
>Proposals to present current research should specify research questions,
>methods, data corpus, and findings, as well as the scope and duration of
>the research project. Proposals to provide overviews of and reflections
>on research traditions and agendas should identify clearly the relevant
>literatures to be considered.
>
>Proposals for individual and poster presentations should be from 250 to
>500 words in length and panel and roundtable proposals, 500 to 1000
>words. Please indicate your preferred format.
