We welcome research-based, reflective, and theoretical papers with a strong emphasis on practical implication for classroom, curriculum, and academic and institutional development. Articles that make a significant contribution to the existing AL literature in higher education with novel findings will be considered. Papers should have a strong theoretical foundation and clear implications for practice and policy. ALJ encourages submissions from all prospective authors, especially disciplinary specialists, writing centre practitioners, and academic literacy practitioners in higher education.</span></p> en-US https://epubs.ac.za/index.php/alj/announcement/view/22 <p>THEME:</p> <p><strong>THE FUTURE OF ACADEMIC LITERACY DEVELOPMENT: WHERE TO </strong><strong>FROM HERE?</strong></p> <p>The field of academic literacy developing has had to keep up with the everevolving higher education landscape. The massification of AL provision, the increasing diversity and needs of students, blended learning, multilingualism, and the era of generative AI (to name but a few developments) have all impacted the ways in which AL practitioners have had to think about their work. For its first issue, the newly established Academic Literacy Journal welcomes submissions from South African academic literacy practitioners that speak to this theme.</p> <p>Full article submissions are due by <strong>15 December 2024.</strong></p> <p>For more information see <strong><a href="https://epubs.ac.za/index.php/alj/information/authors">here</a></strong></p> Academic Literacy Journal 2024-10-01
