Discipline-Specific Writing provides an introduction and guide to the teaching of this topic for students and trainee teachers. This book highlights the importance of discipline-specific writing as a critical area of competence for students, and covers both the theory and practice of teaching this crucial topic. With chapters from practitioners and researchers working across a wide range of contexts around the world, Discipline-Specific Writing:

• Explores teaching strategies in a variety of specific areas including science and technology, social science and business;
• Discusses curriculum development, course design and assessment, providing a framework for the reader;
• Analyses the teaching of language features including grammar and vocabulary for academic writing;
• Demonstrates the use of genre analysis, annotated bibliographies and corpora as tools for teaching;
