Writing in the Academy, Reputation and Knowledge

Ken Hyland explores the importance of writing in higher education, for both students and academics, by focusing on three elements: reputation, education and knowledge. In taking a social view of literacy, he presents some aspects of his research to argue that writing is at the heart of academic practice and that academic literacy cannot be understood simply as textual and psychological.Hyland, Ken is the author of 'Writing in the Academy, Reputation and Knowledge', published 2007 under ISBN 9780854737710 and ISBN 0854737715.
