AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'While national agendas and individual university mission statements seek to make Australian higher education more inclusive for an increasingly diverse student population, the contribution that writing centres can make to achieving these goals has been overlooked. This article outlines the rationale, development, and growth of the Writing Hub at the University of Sydney to advocate for writing centre/writing across the curriculum (WAC) collaborations as the future of writing instruction in Australia. By reimagining academic writing instruction as creative, collaborative practice, Australian higher education can move beyond the antiquated deficit remediation model.' (Publication abstract)

    'For some years, the regular edition editors at TEXT have followed a labour-intensive procedure in handling submissions and the peer review process, with all correspondence going through the central TEXT email address. We would like to improve our ability to track articles in the system, and also allow our authors and peer reviewers to check easily what stage an article is up to, what is required of them, and by when.'
